Tips: Mind and Concept Mapping

The new issue (Winter 2014) of ACRL Instruction Section's Tips & Trends has been published. The theme is Mind and Concept Mapping. It has a concise 3 pages outlining benefits, drawbacks and examples, plus a bibliography. Go to http://www.ala.org/acrl/aboutacrl/directoryofleadership/sections/is/iswebsite/projpubs/tipsandtrends for this and also for previous Tips and Trends.
On this topic, I have just put up a full-text paper I wrote about using mindmapping as part of teaching students to search: it was written in 2002 but I think it's still relevant. http://www.slideshare.net/sheilawebber/mapping-a-path-to-the-embpowered-searcher
