Abstract
A World Café, sometimes called a knowledge café,
is defined by Wikipedia as ‘a type of business
meeting or organisational workshop which aims
to provide an open and creative conversation on a
topic of mutual interest to surface their collective
knowledge, share ideas and insights, and gain
a deeper understanding of the subject and the
issues involved’.
This article describes a world café organised by
the library at National University of Ireland Maynooth. Following some brief background informa
tion, the process is outlined. We hope the article
will give an insight into the process and be of use
to those exploring creative ways to engage people
around a topic.
