The role of the embedded librarian takes many forms - in learning communities, community organizations, support groups and businesses. Embedded librarianship can include team teaching a course, becoming an important part of a local film/art/music festival, or integration of library resources into a school curriculum or an organization’s event. This course will discuss best practices and tools for working as an embedded librarian. We will explore how to initiate a collaborative relationship with faculty or community organizations, and also teach you how to partner with them for better student or event success. Participants will learn how to improve relationships with faculty and organizations and become an integral part of the curriculum, event, or program of study. We will also discuss how to use emerging technologies in embedded librarianship as communication and collaborative tools.

Dec: Best Practices for Implementing Virtual and Blended Learning (InSync)
Tuesday, Dec. 9 (11-12 pm)
So you’ve built a virtual blended program, but will they come? And once they are they are there, how are you going to keep track of them? Most training organizations don’t realize that the management of a virtual training solution can be the most difficult hurdle to jump. Connecting the dots between the different learning technologies means managing a potentially complex rollout, developing the training team, getting the word out, and getting participants eager to participate and complete the course of study. This session will provide best practices for implementing virtual and blended learning, focusing on marketing your programs, managing the implementation, and motivating your participants to enroll and complete the program.

Apr: Finding the Return on Investment in Blended Learning (InSync Training)
April
14 (11-12 pm Mountain)
Developing
a blend takes investments in hardware, software, content development, and
program design. Implementing a blend
requires investments in managing the program, marketing the program, and
maintaining motivation through what might be a multiple week (or month!)
program for participants. When we develop a face-to-face program, we know
immediately after delivery what needs to change and we can adapt before we
teach again. With blended programs, it might take six weeks to figure it out.
After all this, how do we know if the blended learning program was worth the
investment? Sure, we can tell if people
enjoyed the content using Level 1 evaluations, and if people LEARNED the
content using Level 2 evaluations, but how do we evaluate at Level 3 (Are they
using what they learned on the job?) and ultimately Level 4 (Was it worth the
investment?). These components together provide the background we need to
calculate the Return on Investment (ROI) of our blended learning initiative.

May: Goodbye Cybrarians, Hello Moocbrarians: Envisioning the Role of Librarians in Massive Online Open Courses
ACRL e-learning webcast
Wednesday, May 22 (1:00
– 2:30 p.m. Central)
Technology is enabling higher
education to change more in the next ten years than it has in the past hundred.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are one such technological innovation and
have generated a lot of press in the past year. This live, interactive webcast
will focus on the role of the librarian in these online courses. Examine
what librarians are currently doing to provide support for these institutional
course offerings and discuss possible future roles that librarians can play as
MOOCs move from the margins to the mainstream.
Learning
Outcomes:- Learn about current library efforts to support MOOCs (e.g. copyright and licensing).
- Learn about new strategic challenges that MOOCs present for libraries (e.g. scale and remote services for diverse course demographics).
- Learn about new strategic opportunities that MOOCs present for libraries (e.g. information literacy instruction and Open Educational Resources (OERs).
Complete details including the
full webcast description, learning outcomes, and registration materials are
available online.
