Writers are commonly advised to "kill your darlings," to get rid of superfluous characters, sentences, or plot points in service of a more concise, compelling story. Understandably, these darlings are difficult to cut. Yes, we are talking about one-shots. This interactive workshop will lead librarians desiring change through a ruthless inventory of their instruction program to reimagine pedagogical goals. This workshop is based on efforts currently underway at LaGuardia Community College. We will share qualitative strategies and quantitative tools to aid the process. Participants will leave the session ready to take the first step towards change.
