[Hum-DIS] FW: Librarians2.0 on the loose: an unofficial unconference forWestern Australian libraryland

[Matthias Liffers]

Hi everyone,

As this event is free (as in beer), there's no good reason why students
can't come!
(Unless there are scheduled classes, of course)

- Matthias


Feel passionate or curious about new library approaches, want to share it
with a group of like-minded librarians? Come to participate in discussion
and presentations about new definitions of content, new definitions of
library collections and new ways that we can get out of our buildings to
serve our customers where they are.

DATE: Friday 3 August

TIME: 9:30am - 5pm

WHERE: State Library of Western Australia, Great Southern Room 4th Floor

AFTERWARD:  6pm - late ,  Annalakshmi on the Swan, 1st Floor - Western
Pavilion, Barracks Square (Between Jetty No. 4 & No. 5), Perth

An unconference works on the principle that whoever turns up is the right
person and whatever you discuss is the right thing. People prepare topics,
but sessions are decided on the day. Everyone is expected to participate by
either presenting, joining in the discussion or doing another job.

TO GET INVOLVED:

1. Go to the registration site: *
http://unconferencewalibrary.pbwiki.com/Register*<http://unconferencewalibrary.pbwiki.com/Register>

2. Then, go to the "What is happening on the day" *
http://unconferencewalibrary.pbwiki.com/What-is-happening-on-the-day*<http://unconferencewalibrary.pbwiki.com/What-is-happening-on-the-day>
page of the wiki and edit it to suggest a topic for discussion, volunteer to
give a presentation or do a job.

The event is FREE, but you MUST REGISTER. Tea, coffee, bikkies and a pizza
lunch are all provided. You will need to pay for dinner. This unconference
is supported by the State Library of Western Australia, Murdoch University
Library, Curtin University Library and ALIA West, but is facilitated by an
independent group of volunteers.
