Peer Learning

Don't ever underestimate how much you can learn from your peers.  I have been fortunate enough to sit in on two instruction sessions recently and both times I have exclaimed, 'I didn't know you could do that'.  Here is what I learned:
  • In Google Scholar, under settings, you can choose your citation management tool.  At the University of Saskatchewan we are currently using RefWorks, which is one of the options for exporting citations.  Very cool!
  • In GOBI, which is our acquisitions application, you can see internal approval plans and their parameters.
So sit in on as many sessions as you can.  Even if you learn one new thing, that is one new thing that you can share with your students.
