    (2016-09-18) Nutt, Mike
    This preconference takes place in the new Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning and includes a tour of the building. Participants will learn about the vision for the building, its architecture, design, and technology implementation. Sessions will include how the building, along with its technologies and the pedagogies employed by the teaching faculty, support the vision to enhance teaching and learning; and how librarians are partnering with others engaged with the program. Additional sessions will describe how other institutions are innovating in new types of projects involving teaching, learning, and libraries.
