mattgallon on 02 Sep 14Librarians are key players and stakeholders in the My Learning Essentials skills support program, the University of Manchester's vehicle for supporting collaborative efforts between library staff, trainers, academics and others across the University. MLE is a blended program that combines an "open" strand of self-directed instruction through online resources and drop-in skills clinics with a "curriculum-linked" strand of class sessions and embedded instruction. Strong ties between those who create, deliver and support the MLE allow for continuous development of the program and support for students. Collaboration at the University of Manchester's Library is well thought-out and extensive, and takes place at every stage, from the design of the calendar of support for the year, to the end-of-term assessment of each strand.
