Presentation Abstract:

Kealin McCabe has been the Research and Learning Services Librarian at the Geoffrey R. Weller Library since 2008. Kealin completed her Master of Library and Information Science at Western University in 2008 and is currently pursuing an EdD in Educational Leadership and Policy at the University of British Columbia. Her work reflects her belief that a student-centred approach to teaching and learning enhances and reinvigorates the educational system. Kealin’s teaching philosophy is informed by her desire to enhance the educational, intellectual, professional and social growth of all students through the continuous exploration, implementation, and evaluation of new and innovative services in the promotion of lifelong learning.  Recognizing that the work of librarians’ is generally misunderstood, this lecture will highlight new and innovative ways Kealin has sought to enhance student learning experiences, while creating collaborative working relationships with faculty including; embedded librarianship, high school outreach programs, reference, the creation of online learning modules and more
