Abstract

ABSTRACT: The workshop series discussed in this article was designed as a collaborative effort by two librarians working at different institutions. The series was created as a standalone series that would allow each librarian the ability to access the series and teach independently of each other. The workshop series was taught in an online synchronous format, with a focus on active learning and student engagement. The librarians selected concepts that could be recycled for use in future face-to-face instruction at their separate institutions. This article discusses the creation of the workshop series, including instructional content, digital tools, project management, and marketing.
