Library and Information Science Research Australia is a project funded by The Australian Research Council. The project aims to encourage and enable research culture and practice within Australia’s library and information profession. 

A free session was held on the 24 June 2021. 

Every librarian at some point in their career will have to review and evaluate a library service or program. To do that, you need to develop a research question. Whilst sounding quite formal, a research question is simply stating the issue or question that you need to solve. In this session, Maeva and Aimee will walk you through the process of developing a good research question and determining how to answer your question. Drawing on their recent experience, leading the project Challenging diversity in children’s collections in the Northern Territory, Maeva and Aimee will share their research questions and lessons learned along the way.

The session speakers were Maeva Masterson and Aimee Hay. The session was facilitated by Professor Helen Partridge.
