Generic learning Outcomes (GLOs):

  1. Knowledge and understanding: increased awareness of library facilities and provision
  2. Increase in skills: improved social skills
  3. Change in attitudes and values: change in attitudes towards libraries and library staff
  4. Enjoyment, inspiration and creativity: evidence of exploration and experimentation, having fun, being surprised
  5. Progression: modified behaviour and activity
