Hello ARLIS Boston Conference Attendees,

 

Consider participating in the “Meeting User Expectations” workshop on Friday, April 23, 1:00 to 5:00, at the Massachusetts College of Art (3rd floor of the Tower building).

 

As the post-digital shift in faculty and student expectations builds momentum, the visual resources professional and art librarian must master new technologies fast and oftentimes with fewer resources. Given the enormous swell of multimedia projects, tools, and interdisciplinary resources integral to academic curricula or curatorial research, now more than ever collaboration between VRC and Arts Librarians is vital to effectively serve patrons. In this workshop, we define and explore what user expectations are and offer strategies to address them.  We will cover “what to expect and what to deliver” by combining current and emergent technologies in terms of supporting faculty teaching and student research needs.  At the same time, we will also explore how these technologies can enhance reference and library instruction.

 

Please join us for a great discussion and thought-provoking, useful activities.
