Agenda/Minutes

Get Started Orientation Sessions

  • Two sessions were taught in early February, total attendees: 17 (similar to number at in-person sessions taught in January 2020)

Goals for 2021-22

  • Public Service Team leads asked to share prospective goals for the upcoming year (2021-2022) at a meeting on March 15.
  • Possible ideas:
    • Instructional videos to accompany the "Introduction to Library Research" page on the CUL site We may want to remove this! I floated the idea, but I didn't sense any buy-in from others, so it may be best to remove from the list of ideas – Lynn
    • Videos that demonstrate common practices for creating accessible LibGuides from the start and updating LibGuide accessibility LibGuide (both could involve collaborating with Kevin and Darcy) 
    • Revise CLIQ/Devise new assessment strategies for CUL instruction, working with instructors and administration to set guidelines for what would be most helpful for them 
    • Create a checklist for new library instructors
    • Continue to lead discussion-based programming on topics of relevance to CUL instructors and informed by university and library priorities (article discussions and end-of-semester event(s))
    • Inclusive teaching principles and practices to be intertwined with many of the goals above (include on new instructor checklist, create programming/events that center inclusive pedagogy, continue focus on accessibility, etc.)

Joint end-of-semester of event w/ Liaison Steering

  • Ashley talked to Alison Shea about co-sponsoring an event with Liaison Steering. Thought so far is that a casual, drop-in event in/around mid-May, 1.5-2 hours, holding space open for liaisons and instructors to share current practices that they have been involved in. 

New instructor checklist 

  • Lenora sent a Google doc (← link; restricted access, ask for permission if you can't open it) just as a start. Can pursue this in the coming year as it might be a longer term project

Libguides, next steps

  • See goals above

Unit updates

  • Nothing specific, but general consensus that online teaching is time consuming and we are mostly eager to get back into the physical classroom (when it is safe to do so)!
