The Library’s Role in Teaching and Learning

Outcome Expected:

Share experiences of the library's role in transforming learning and teaching, and how to move even further forward.

Background:

The short presentations are based on the “The Power of Three”, the theme of the recent EDUCAUSE in Australasia Conference in May 2001. This was the first time that Library, IT Services and Teaching & Learning Services had combined at an EDUCAUSE to share experiences. It was thought that this was a useful way of sharing our experiences.
