Staying Critical & Current – Getting Involved in the Journal Club
There are several ways you can be in the UBC Library Journal Club.
- Attend the Library Journal Club meetings as a participant.
- Notify Erin Fields of potential discussion topics, articles, or reports.
- Offer to facilitate a session.
- Provide a short presentation on an area of study, research, or workshop that you have either attended or facilitated.
Facilitating a Session
To facilitate a session, read the general format of the meetings at What to Expect at a Meeting and contact Erin Fields with a brief outline of your session and details of a date and time that works with your schedule.
Presenting for the Journal Club
The Journal Club has often accepted requests from individuals for larger presentations and panels on topics. While the main focus of the Journal Club will be evaluating research in librarianship, presentations can be a part of the meetings if they are shorter in length and offer the attendees a chance to discuss/evaluate. To volunteer a presentation for the Journal Club, please contact Erin Fields.
