Abstract: Curtin University Library’s program Listening, Learning and Leading: Transforming the Curtin Student Library Experience directly enables Curtin University’s Learning for Tomorrow strategy and aligns with students’ experiences of a transformed learning approach, focusing on expanding support and access for very diverse student groups. Initiated in 2013, the program supports students on their learning journey by increasing physical and virtual access to library services and resources. It provides customised information literacy support at point of need and by developing innovative hands-on learning activities. It uses mobile app technology such as augmented reality in games based learning, to develop a ‘maker community’ and ‘library makerspace’. The paper outlines how Listening, Learning and Leading has contributed to enhancing students’ overall learning experience.
