Pancha Enzyme leads a discussion about providing information services for learners in Second Life. Pancha is a librarian at Edinburgh University and also part of a Second Life teaching team. She and her colleagues have developed the “IS cream van” as one approach to meeting information needs and questions. She will talk about this (and probably let you see the van!) and we will also be interested in hearing others’ ideas.

Thanks John. Photos from this event (held last night, 7th December) are available now on my Flickr stream, Second Life set. I have also send some to the Virtual World use in UK Education Flickr picture pool.
