HEPPP to be square: Sustainable social inclusion at Monash University Library

Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER)

Research output: Contribution to conference › Presentation

Abstract

In 2011, Monash University Library created the positions of Learning Skills Adviser and Subject Librarian for Social Inclusion (HEPPP). Initial projects were completed by the end of the first appointments in 2013, but were not necessarily sustainable. This paper is aimed at presenting projects undertaken during the second contract beginning 2014, which are designed to target First Year HEPPP category students. To maintain equity and sustainability, programs are designed to fulfil the needs of HEPPP students but are delivered to the entire cohort through established Faculty Teams in the Library. Four principles are adopted: transparent work practices, equitable delivery, staff capacity building and the creation of programs and learning objects with reference to published advice by Devlin, Kift, Nelson, Smith and McKay (2012). Online learning objects are created to encourage First Year HEPPP category students to be competent, capable, and confident in pursuing independent research and study.
