Libraries: Your passport to discovery!
Library and Information Week 2009, May 25 - 31
Libraries connect people to ideas. It's a vital part of our commitment to promoting the free flow of information and facilitating all Australians' access to recorded knowledge, information, and creative works. This year’s theme highlights the self-directed discovery element of libraries and to celebrate libraries as the place to access, communicate, connect, educate, entertain and inform
– ALIA (Australian Library and Information Association).
What’s on in your campus Library to celebrate?
All campus libraries:
This will be the final week of the Library Survey in which will be listening to your feedback about our services. Good or bad, we want to know what your think. Fill in a print form in the Library or an online form at www.ballarat.edu.au/library and enter the prize draw .
SMB campus library:
Staff and students are invited to join the SMB Library staff for morning tea on Tuesday at 10.30am as part of the Cancer Council’s Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea fundraiser. Make a donation and enjoy a cuppa, biscuits and slices. Donations $2 and over are tax deductible and receipts will be available.
On Wednesday, children from the SMB crèche will visit the Library to participate in National Simultaneous Storytime . In 2008, approximately 110,000 children were involved in the program which aims to promote the value of reading, literacy and books. This year’s featured book is Pete the Sheep by Jackie French, illustrated by Bruce Whatley.
Mt. Helen campus library:
Throughout the week, Mt. Helen will be holding a book sale with proceeds being put towards the Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea fundraising effort. If you have any stray or unwanted books (that don’t belong to the Library!) we’d be happy to receive them as donations for the book sale. Staff at the Information Desk will accept donations until Thursday May 28. Come and have a browse – every book is a new book if you haven’t read it!
