Do you dare enter a world of digital mystery and adventure? *insert suspenseful music* Join us for an upcoming Learning Lab where the boundaries of creativity, technology, and library engagement collide!
Mark your calendars for the upcoming Learning Lab: Here There Be Monsters... in the Library! on October 10 at 2pm ET, led by Melody Steiner, Arts and Humanities Librarian at Lorain County Community College (LCCC), and Ellen Weppelman, former Engineering, Business, and IT Librarian at LCCC. This spine-tingling session will reveal how you can turn your ordinary LibGuides and LibAnswers tools into extraordinary experiences for your patrons.
What's Lurking in This Session?
Participants will learn the art of crafting a choose-your-own-adventure story using Springshare's LibAnswers Chatbot! During this session, Melody and Ellen will show how they created LCCC's innovative one-of-a-kind Halloween LibGuide - an outreach project that cleverly combines a spooky, story-based guide with interactive instruction. You'll learn the behind-the-scenes work involved in creating an engaging, themed experience that draws users in and keeps them clicking.
- Get creative with storytelling techniques that grab your audience's attention.
- Learn to implement the choice-tree method, for a story-based, themed LibGuide.
- Discover innovative ways to turn routine interactions into dynamic, fun experiences.
Whether you're a LibGuides enthusiast or just love the thrill of a good story, this session will spark your imagination and offer practical tips to spice up your library's online presence. Don't miss your chance to bring some monstrous magic into your library!
