whole school library
DESCRIPTION
Celebrate change: let’s make the whole school a library. Keynote presented at School Library Association of Victoria conference March 2010, this presentation explores the rationale for extending school library services and influence beyond the physical space of the library, and to identify the benefits to learning and teaching (and student engagement) that will flow from such an approach.TRANSCRIPT

The sharing economy
In the 20th century you were identified by what you owned.
In the 21st century we will also be defined by how we share
and what we give away
Charles Leadbeater, 2008

Transaction to transformation
Too much of our work in libraries is about transactions rather than conversations
Rather than deliver a service, create a capability in the consumer
The point is to allow consumer to help themselves
