Win Win Win! : Poster Alley

This catch phrase comes from one of the Korean posters - they declared that their program was WIN WIN WIN ! for everyone. Loved that.  The poster sessions have certainly been a win for us.  We have met many people and harvested some great ideas for our Library Services.

Our neighbouring posters and presenters were from all over the world.  Here's a sample:

Japan - Informal counselling in the Library space for Japanese students from difficult backgrounds who would not go to 'Official' councellors in enclosed offices in other parts of their schools.

Romania - A 500 year old reference & research library of historical Hungarian literature being made accessible to the wider community in a small town made up of 50% Hungarians & 50% Armenians.

Finland - A small public Library making partnerships with local interest groups and businesses, who are invited to host meetings and sessions in the Library space.  They come up with the programs, rather than the library.

Indonesia - teaching information literacy & library skills to school students who are 'Digital Natives' using online games.

Our own poster was well received and people loved our Australian Animal bookmarks, inviting them to connect with us via our email addresses. Each morning we'd come back to our poster to find more bookmarks had disappeared overnight!  Here's our poster - no. 153.
