We are now in February and things all seem to be going well. My vent skills were tested to the full with our learndirect day that was designed to promote all our learning and other eductaional library services, the evnt went well with good feedback and around 500 attending. It also gave us a chance to raise the library profile as a whole with local council and press!

I have also held short training sessions on learndirect with the staff, this has been a good develkopment area as I enjoyed it and came across well but it has made me keen to try deleivering longer training sessions and I will get the chance to do this soon.

I have also been trying to develop my work within the wider learning community by agreeing to chair meetings or taking part in marketing or other service development areas in the wider adult learning environment. This is all good oppurtunities to help my chartership and overall development. As part of my chartership my PPDP is now finalised and I have been working towards some of the aims for a while already. I will now try and make sure I have a good amount of evidence to back it all up!
