My Learning diary Day 15: January 30, 2023

Book Clubs are advocated by New Education Policy 2020 in school and public libraries.  Therefore it is the demand of our profession that we have to pay more emphasis on formation and functioning of Book Clubs.  This was the topic taken up by Mr. Saini.  He talked about need, formation, requirement, activities, etc. of the Book Club and I understood the topic well.

Since technology is moving at a fast pace we have to get themselves well acquainted with technology.  Our next session was on new trends in libraries.  I learned web 2.0/3.0, social media and its application in libraries, virtual reference service, RSS, semantic web, 3D web, media centric web, the pervasive web, cloud computing, QR codes, big data, etc.

My fellow participants actively delivered their demo presentations.  They were too good.  We also geared up to prepare our Reading List for Teachers. Last date for submission is 2nd Feb 2023.

Fingers crossed for my tomorrow's presentation...
