Staff Notes: Keith Morgan

Keith Morgan (Research and Information Services), at the invitation of the US State Department, recently delivered a video conference presentation to senior librarians and staff in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. His theme was innovation in US research libraries. Using the NCSU Libraries as a prime example, he discussed the impact of the Learning Commons on student engagement; the Digital Media Lab as an exemplar of incorporating new media into teaching and learning; the Technology Sandbox as a collaborative incubator for the campus community; and using digital display networks to engage and promote the campus community.

Had there been more time he would have happily discussed mobile computing, course view tools, and our aspirations for the new Hunt Library.
