Portfolio Building

I have decided that it may be a good idea to start building up a portfolio of work and evidence of the things I do in the library. I am hoping this will allow me to improve the way I work, help me create better displays and also allow me to run through any issues I have faced.

It may also help me in the future when I apply for more managerial positions and if I decide to work towards chartership with CILIP in the future, but we will see how I get on!


So over the past six months in the Learning Resources Centre where I work we have really tried pushing the enrichment side of our roles. We have tried to create promotional displays for events every week, I do a fortnightly DVD review for the student news and we produce some slides for the TV screens scattered across the college.

Amongst those I have managed to get pictures of are RSPCA Week, National Doughnut Week, and our student news display outside the LRC, see below :)

The plan is to use these pictures, build a portfolio, and maybe write up the event and the uptake and any feedback. But we will see :)




This is George the Giraffe. We made him for RSPCA week!






George likes eating leaves!




And this is our National Doughnut Week display. 
It was for the Children's Trust and we also sold doughnuts that week.
We made just over £40 pounds, and to say that we sold the doughnuts for thirty pence I don't think we did too badly!



And this is our display to try and encourage people to read different books.
It could do with some work in all honesty, but it was a late addition 
and has only been up the past few weeks and its almost end of term. 
But we can work on it for next year :)

And thanks to the lovely Jodi who i work with for helping me make these!
