Finding Your Chicken: Collaboration in the Community College Library
The Paul H. Thompson Library at Fayetteville Technical Community College serves a diverse student body comprised of all ages, races, and backgrounds. Using imagination and innovation, the library found new and creative methods to reach out to the campus community. Through networking, community engagement, and outreach, the library has seen an increase in attendance as well as more engaged student and faculty interaction. This presentation will cover the ways in which libraries can market themselves as an open learning space for an inclusive, student-oriented community.
Presenters: Kris Obele Bele, Ashley Apple, & Megan Williams
Don't Cancel that Class
Don’t Cancel That Class is a program born out of instructor needs during the recovery period from COVID-19. To stop the spread of infection, instructors were more likely to call out due to illness, doctor’s appointments, quarantine, etc. To keep students from missing instruction, Wilkes Community College decided various departments across campus, including the library, would offer one-shot sessions to any classes where instructors are absent. Instructors can request an appointment based on what they want their students to learn, whether it be study and test taking skills from the Academic Support Center, personal finance from Financial Aid, or library instruction. This program has since grown. Instructors no longer just use this service for when they need to miss work. This service is used to enrich class material whether the instructor is present or not. Currently the library offers four sessions: evaluating sources, information literacy, library orientation, and subject/assignment specific research assistance. This presentation will cover what the library has been doing so far within the scope of Don’t Cancel That Class and what our future plans are. I am one of the administrators for the Don’t Cancel That Class MS Bookings Page, and one of my duties is to track data for the sessions provided each semester. Several of the items that will be covered during the presentation include instruction materials, keeping students engaged, and faculty/staff outreach.
