Abstract
Over a short amount of time the libraries have increased their e-resources and digital collections. This gives new opportunities to provide accessibility to the end-users. We still experience that the library room is a central point for the academic experience for the students. The physical library room has a lot of potential. We are moving from the feeling of storage for books to create a different kind of experience within the collection. How and in what ways can we promote our e-resources in the physical space?
Welcome to this workshop where we try out different tools, ideas and strategies on how to market the library’s resources in new ways. You will get an introduction to the topic mixed with some practical examples. We will share both our mistakes and successes from previous experiences. Our workshop includes both discussions and sharing in groups. We will also have “hands on” exercises. After the workshop you will have some new tools, good examples and tried out new things with your mobile device.
