What you told us!

Thank you to all the people that responded to our "Tell us what you want!" questionnaire.

Robyn Hampton is the lucky winner of the prize draw for the $60 music or book voucher. Congratulations Robyn!

So what did you tell us?

  • Lunchtime and Evening events were equal in popularity. About 15% of you preferred Breakfast Meetings or didn't mind. So we will make sure that we vary the times and days of the meetings that we plan.
  • Library Tours and Presentations were the most popular format, followed closely by Interactive Workshops and Social Events.
  • "Top Tech Tips" came out tops in our list of suggested topics and some of you made particular comments about wanting to learn new technology skills in an interactive way. Coaching and training, stress management and career development were also popular.
  • In your comments you also suggested events for library assistants, people new to the profession or people that want to make career moves.

This is all really useful information to guide our planning and we'll do our best to provide something for everyone!

We would love some help!

We'd love some help - do you know anyone that might be interested in delivering any of the presentations/events? If so then give send us an email - we'd love to hear from you.

Our Committee would also love to have some new members to help us make stuff happen. If you're interested in planning some great events and joining our small and dynamic wee team then let us know.
