Fiona and I have just had workshops with some of the Bachelor of Teaching and Learning (BTchLn) Distance students. They were full of praise for both the Library Distance service and AskLive. It was lovely to get such positive feedback to share.

Education Handouts & Pathfinders
There are a few education-y things that are notoriously tricky to locate on the catalogue. Because of this we have created handouts with lists for students to use.
Figure it out
Building science concepts
Curriculum documents
Copies of these documents are on Level 4 shelved below the CD racks, at the main lending desk, and on the Education Subject Guide at: “How do I find?”
Also at “How do I find?” are some of the handouts we provide in classes and to our students in general.
Adobe Connect Library workshops
The week starting the 5th of March Kim, Fiona, Kathryn & Kiera are running a series of 4 online adobe connect workshops.
Find it! Beginners and Find it! Advanced
Reference it! APA Style Basics and Reference it! APA Style Advanced.
If you are interested in how these online workshops run, you are more than welcome to either sign up to participate or sit in on the delivery.
Welcome to Central morning tea
The College of Education, Health and Human Development staff, students & whanau have been invited to a “Welcome to Central” morning tea. There will be food and a cuppa. Please feel free to join us on level 4 to mingle and chat. We do not expect hordes. It would be nice for the CoEHHD folk who are able to attend to meet the rest of the library community. Let Kathryn or Fiona know if you plan to attend, for catering. I think food is being ordered Monday. Otherwise, feel free to just rock on up on the day.
Friday January 26th at 10.30am.
Lockers L5
There are some small lockable lockers on L5. They are in the corridor beside the other lockers. If you would like a locker, now is the time. First in, first served. Put your name on a locker and take the key.

Education Library relocation information
Thanks to Romy, there is a subject guide for the Education Library relocation. It can be found under “About” on the Library homepage.
The guide has information about what is happening to collections and buildings in relation to the relocation at the end of 2017. It will be updated as information becomes available. Please promote the guide to staff and students.
Book a Librarian QuickLink
We now have a “Book a Librarian” Quick Link on the library homepage. This will take you to the contacts page for the subject librarians. You will see photo’s (yikes!), phone & emails. There is also a button to “Make an appointment” beside those using LibCal for appointment scheduling. Thanks to Library E-services for making this happen for us.
