To raise awareness among staff To develop staff skills To develop the service To try to ensure consistent services and standards
across the Glasgow College Libraries To help meet the expectations of “instant expert
syndrome” Learning by doing and sharing the experience

Horizon module training materials were poor and more akin to workshop materials than detailed instructions and procedures
GCLG produced Horizon module training materials for staff which were more targeted to meet our needs
