Please join us for another great LILi (Lifelong Information Literacy) Show & Tell, “Rejuvenate Adjuncts with a Library Retreat”. The session will take place online Wednesday, April 15, at 1:00 PM CDT. The presenters are Melissa Johnson, Interim Director, Duda Family Business Library, and Tracey Rinehart, Instruction Coordinator & Business Graduate Programs Librarian, both of Southern Methodist University.

This session will focus on ways to engage with adjunct faculty by hosting a one-day retreat focusing on teaching, research, and topics central to adjuncts’ daily workflows.

Goals:

  • Provide participants with insight and ideas on how to conduct a rejuvenating adjunct using a library retreat in order to cultivate a sense of belonging, connectedness, and partnership.
  • Inspire attendees to explore ideas to adapt a similar event at their home institution in order to cultivate a sense of belonging, connectedness, and partnership.

The session will include:

  1. An interactive Mentimeter presentation.
  2. A poll to determine if participants also experienced similar adjunct involvement issues.
  3. Time for participants to brainstorm ways they can implement a retreat-like event at their home institutions
  4. Time for participants to share some of their ideas with the larger group to generate additional interest and ideas.

No registration is required. Please join the meeting here. A recording will also be available on the LILi Show & Tell webpage after the session.
