Curtin University Library

Curtin has a very extensive IL programme, involving a lot of collaboration with academic staff. I have an excellent example of an embedded programme in Health Sciences as well as some useful documentation demostrating how the activities are documented.
I was interested in the staff development, which involves a session every fortnight on topics of interest, either run within the library or with invited speakers.
LATN is a collaborative network of 5 australian technical libraries and as a group they have been involved with supporting “offshore” students, especially in SE Asia. There seem to be a lot of collaborative initiatives in Australia – it would be good if we could do more of this locally.


I wasn’t able to take any photos inside Curtin Library, but here are Kerry and Diana with some of the spectacular flowers and the library behind them.
