Esther Grassian is well known in the information literacy field, and is the

Theory and Practice_, (an ACRL Instruction Section, Publication of the Year)

Description: "Are you feeling off-balance? Overworked and underfunded? How can
you keep up with all of your responsibilities, not to mention new technologies,
apps, mobile environments, and social networking, when email alone takes up
hours of time, while budgets, staff and open hours are cut, and class sizes
keep getting bigger? How can you tell if what you are doing is effective when
you have no time for reflection, and no time to develop assessment instruments,
analyze the results, and make revisions? Collaborative partnerships, small and
large, could help! Get insight into your institution's current partnership
level, as well as ideas for expanding existing partnerships or developing new
ones within and beyond your institution. Learn about big and little dreams of
partners and partnerships, and how you can jump in to make it happen."

No registration required, just come along if you are interested! Esther's
presentation will be in voice, with discussion in text chat.
