Just prior to the 2010 Reference @ the Metcalfe seminar the RISG team put together some simple artwork to reflect the Twitter tag for the event (#risg2010) and with the help of RedBubble were able to turn this into a selection of tee shirts of varying decsriptions. Cathy Johnston briefly introduced this foray into the world of wearable promotions with this brief presentation.

Reference @ The Metcalfe presentation: Answer Boards & Public Libraries (Cathy Johnston)
This is the presentation I gave at the Reference @ The Metcalfe reference seminar last Wednesday. My aim here was really to inspire other Reference Librarians to think outside their Libraries & consider the enormous potential of Answer Boards and how we can market Libraries & especially Reference Services to the many people asking questions there. It was also a big push to get more and more people involved in and actively participating in Slam the Boards!
If you were at the Seminar I'd really like to know what you thought of my presentation, but more importantly I'd love to get feedback about your impressions and experiences with Answer Boards and especially from participation in the monthly Slam the Boards! event.
Answer Boards and Social Searching was a Week 8 activity in the Learning 2.0 program run by the State Library of NSW.
