Around the world in 80+ books (LWW conference)

I was fascinated by Kara Jones and Kate Robinson’s presentation today. They have been working with a group of international students- first asking them to recommend a physical library from their home country which they enjoyed using, and following this by asking them to choose 5 books which they feel they can recommend about their country. The Library at Bath University have bought copies of the books in their original language as well as English and have a wiki linked to their catalogue in which the students can comment on the books and recommend them to others. This is a great example of involving students, which I intend to copy at the first opportunity!
