Sydney Dinner with Michael StephensOriginally uploaded by andrewandlisa2153 I enjoyed the seminar today with Michael Stephens. Our Beyond the Hype presentation on EBLIP got a good wrap ("it rocks" -woohoo!), and there was lots of support for more evidence based practice when it comes to all things 2.0."But what evaluation has been done" was the question that came from the audience. This was a

This article has been reposted with permission from ALIA. It was originally published in inCite, vol.28 no.11 November 2007, p.39. Two of the recent major challenges to traditional library practice have been evidence-based library and information practice (EBLIP) and Library 2.0. Are these two right together, or too tame to triumph?EBLIP and Library 2.0 may be put at opposite ends of the

Prompted by an invitation to contribute a column for a local journal, a little blog post made as part of the Learning 2.0 program last year has been retrieved and given a bit more attention (as was always meant to be the case!). The piece is tentatively entitled "EBLIP and Library 2.0 - Friends or Foe?" and will discuss the relevance of EBLIP in the 2.o world ...EBLIP and Library 2.0 may be

The UBC Health Library Wiki includes an entry for "evidence-based librarianship". It is still only brief (a couple of paragraphs, and a reference list), so there is plenty of scope for others to contribute.Perhaps this could be where parts of our toolkit (the bits we reckon best served in wiki-format) could be hosted? Or is the focus of this knowledge-base too narrow for us, since we are seeking

This issue of EBLIP has so far been the one to generate most interest from me. The commentaries by Hallam and Partridge, and Cleyle addressed issues I've been considering lately, and a number of articles and evidence summaries were published relating to information literacy and e-learning - both relevant to my work in an academic library setting.Two pieces of research were presented (a systematic

I'm setting this challenge to myself, and to everybody else who happens to stumble across this post. It is so exciting to have a journal full of commentary and research (especially via the evidence summaries) with potential to have direct impact in our workplaces.As we read this current issue of EBLIP - let's discuss what we discover ... what questions are raised, what local implications/

A lot happens at "The Hub" in our library - meetings, brainstorming, venting over lack of car park spaces, sharing exciting new discoveries and the latest buzzwords, 10 o'clock coffee, and of course "fruit bowl Friday". One of those buzzwords, evidence-based librarianship, has been a regular topic at "The Hub" and is increasingly weaving its way into our routine practice. The big-wigs have
