Adult User Education/Module 3 Discussion Questions

{{Assignment|

Assignment 3
Pick a particular library setting (academic, public, or special). Consider what other collaborators (businesses, organizations, university departments, etc.) your library might be able to partner with that could help to support an adult user instruction program. Think of at least 3 different collaborators and how these partnerships could be achieved. Here are a few things to consider:
 * What issues might arise in collaborating with each?
 * How could problems be avoided or addressed if they are encountered?
 * What would the stakeholders on each side get out of this kind of partnership?

Create a proposal for each potential collaborator in which you:
 * Provide information about your library
 * Describe the need for collaboration
 * Explain the strengths and services that the potential collaborator could provide
 * Explain the return which the collaborator would gain by working with your library
 * Address how any difficulties you see might be handled

***Suggested length – 3 to 6 pages.}}
