The iSchool @ Toronto

I had great fun on Monday night guest lecturing in a new course at the iSchool @ Toronto. I was there to talk about Millennials in the "Special Topics in Information Studies: Issues in Children's and Young Adults' Services".

This is an interesting course since the students advocated for it themselves and the faculty responded by creating a special issues course. Since the University of Toronto Faculty of Information (iSchool) offers the only graduate level course in library advocacy, it seems to be working in creating new advocacy skills. Cool!

Reality 2.0: Attracting and Engaging the Millennial Library User

It was also a treat to hear the student projects that dealt with special issues and library ethics in servicing young users. Like I always say, I'm not worried about the next generation's talents and education at all.
