University of Rochester, host of the recent Designing Libraries XII Conference, has made videos of 3 sessions available. They are:
– A stirring opening plenary by architect Andrew Frontini, Perkins&Will, “Episodes in Public Architecture: A Candid Reflection”.
– A session offering conceptual and practical information for libraries, “Supporting Student Well-being & Neurodiversity through Design and Programming,” featuring Marisa Nemcik, CannonDesign and Kelly Miller, University of Miami, and an overview by me, as moderator.
– A session, “Sustainable Staffing Models for Experiential Learning”, featuring Meg Moody of University of Rochester, David Woodbury of North Carolina State University, and two truly exceptional students who have been part of the programs, providing models for training and staff development for high technology spaces and services.
The videos are available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5ClYcqV2bk&list=PLJD1Q2B5iWBQxIsYeUZmU_YtScOLAzyX0&index=3
With appreciation to Gary Price for his pointer to these newly released videos and to University of Rochester Libraries for providing the staffing needed to make these available.
