Now I know that Education oriented outreach is generally focused on bringing in students and their instructors, but wouldn't work-shopping librarians to take advantage of their own resources like we have been doing with GLAMs, and then using that built up relationship to get access to their network of media literacy types be a useful approach for non-University members wishing to do outreach on campuses? I think this might be a useful type of outreach event to make Campus Ambassadors aware of, especially those not attached to Professors. As I found last semester at JMU, the libraries always have a list of people who are interested in new approaches to sharing their information.

Vaguely related to this... I've created instructional materials for sport organisations about using social media and wikis to help the organisations meet their institutional goals and objectives. These can be found at http://csv.ozziesport.com/sport%20social%20media%20academy.pdf and http://csv.ozziesport.com/wiki%20sport%20academy.pdf .

One of my supervisors encourage me to do a version for academics. The social media one can be found at http://csv.ozziesport.com/academic%20social%20media%20academy.pdf and involves about four pages really being changed. The wiki one has parts that refer to academics and an academic version could be made. I am hoping to hold an academic use of both social media and wiki workshop at my university sometime in the future. I'd love to see these packets used more as they go at the WHY to use, which answers some of those what are the benefits issues.
