Library events

Come along to discover the Footscray Park Library and have fun!

: Meet our friendly library student assistants at the library stall to find out how the library can support you for study success and how to win prizes at the stall and at the carnival at the Footscray Park Library.
A library student assistant will take you to the Footscray Park Library on level 2 of Building P for carnival-themed fun with games, competitions, prizes and popcorn.
: Step into the future of education and explore how Generative AI is transforming the teaching and learning landscape. "But Did They Actually Write It?" is a thought-provoking exhibition unpacking the complexities of academic integrity, creative agency, and the emotional labour of educators and students in the age of AI supported by the Australian Teacher Education Association (ATEA).
Discover real stories from pre-service teachers, TAFE and higher education staff from across Australia to gain insights into how AI challenges traditional notions of authorship, reshapes teacher workloads, and impacts well-being. Join us to be inspired, informed, and empowered to face the future of education with confidence and curiosity. As part of the exhibition, you will also have opportunity to continue the conversation and have your voice and experiences heard.
This exhibition will run from 14—24 February in the Library.
