Activities and accomplishments
What we've done so far in 2024
- Suggested topics for the self-directed Library online orientation materials that are currently under development.
- Provided feedback to Library staff about the introduction of docking stations in computer areas. This feedback has ensured that the docking stations across the four Library sites each include a keyboard and mouse for student use.
- Several members participated in feedback sessions to understand the current Learning Lab user experience and to help improve content organisation for the upcoming redesign.
The Student Advisory Board (SAB) is a standing body of 15-20 students. Its members contribute to Library decision-making by representing student needs and preferences, and by providing feedback and suggestions on Library services and offerings.
