University Libraries Holds Idea-Thon to Explore Ideas about Jackson Library First Floor Reading Room

Tuesday, May 19 was Idea-thon day at UNCG's University Libraries as library faculty and staff took advantage of reduced summer traffic in Jackson Library to run two brainstorming sessions to generate ideas about possible changes to some of the public spaces in the builidng.  Facilitators guided groups looking at
•    Materials and Resources
•    Seating and Furniture
•    Express Desk
•    Technology
•    Functions

Said Dean of University Libraries Rosann Bazirjian, "we hope that this type of all-inclusive event will lend itself to the development of creative ideas, diversity of thought, teamwork and faster implementation since we will not be using a task force model."
