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

[Kerry Smith]

 Dear all

I see Matthias has sent this onto you.

As the only scheduled daytime Info Studies class for Fridays in semester
2, 2007 is Marg Pember's Management of Records Services, there should be
quite a number of you who could attend this unconference.  I would
recommend that you try and be there as it should be interesting, and
even fun.

Remember YOU MUST REGISTER.

Kerry

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.
