Hyperlinked Symposium: Heather Brady’s 3-2-1

Just when I thought I couldn’t love libraries more, along comes INF287 Hyperlinked Libraries and I realize that I have only scratched the surface of what is possible. Some of the course content was familiar to me, but much was not. However, the flow of the course and how the information built upon itself came together to crystallize some key breakthroughs for me. I’ve include more details in my infographic, but the three AHA moments include:

• Let’s Play – While our library often incorporates play in different ways I want to make a more concerted effort to seek ways to bring this energy to all ages. I hope to help people give themselves permission to play and explore ideas.
• Let’s Try Things! – Building on the play concept, we can also open doors for ourselves to try new things to move the library profession and our libraries forward.
• Let’s Dream – While we can dream any time (if we make time for it!) once we’re in the play and try things mindset I feel we’ll be ready to dream really BIG things.

Thank you to everyone who has been on the journey this semester, I’ve tried to capture my impressions in one final infographic (which is my actual virtual symposium work product). However, the file size was too large for the system limits, so I created this video tour:
