CE Around the State ? Reference Librarians Association Continuing ...

Welcome to a new?monthly feature from RLA-CE.? These posts are designed to gather upcoming continuing education opportunities in one place for you to review.? We?ll be checking out the calendars for?established groups such as LACONI and ARRT as well as the L2 calendar.??The featured programs will be 3-6 weeks out so you have time to register and get permission from your institution.

We?re also always on the lookout for great CE, so if you know of a group or source that offers workshops, classes, webinars, or other training, please let us know!

Since this is RLA-CE?s website, hopefully you won?t begrudge us promoting our program first.? We?re?hosting Mobile?Solutions for Libraries?on Thursday, November 10th from 9:30-noon at the Northbrook Public Library.? Toby Greenwalt will give us a better understanding of the various tools our patrons can use to meet their library needs. FREE :-D

LACONI?s fall program is Top Tech Trends: Planning for the Road Ahead.? Jason Griffey, Associate Professor and Head of Library Information Technology at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga is the featured speaker.? Thursday, October 6th from 9:30-3:00 at the Skokie Public Library.? Not free :(

Their fall?book discussion of The Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet will take place on Wednesday, October 26th from 1:30-3:30 at the Niles Public LIbrary.?

There?s an interesting WebJunction course on using skill-based volunteers in Public Libraries?on Wednesday, October 19th from 1:00-2:00.? Webjunction is a great resource for continuing education.? They cover a wide range of library-related topics and best of all, most are FREE :-D
