This document discusses the concept of "Discovery Guiding" in libraries. It suggests becoming a Discovery Guide by focusing on training and learning, challenging traditional classroom models, remembering that exposure is the first step to learning, recognizing that learners have knowledge to share too, emphasizing fun, and focusing on knowledge playing and understanding new concepts using traditional methods. The overall message is that Discovery Guiding is about empowering exploration and sharing knowledge in a playful, low-pressure way.
