Service Animals in Libraries: Developing Best Practices Protocol for Multiple Service Points (Washington State Library)

This webinar will provide an overview of how Western Washington University Libraries developed a Best Practices document for its personnel in order to consistently address concerns about service animals, including tailored recommendations for specific service points. Upon completion of this webinar, attendees will have new knowledge, and some resources, to begin this conversation within their own library.

How do we train non-technical staff to effectively troubleshoot and train our patrons on using their own gadgets?

Open Educational Resources: Librarians as Advocates, Advisors, and Creators (Georgia Library Association)
College textbooks have gotten so expensive that many students are opting not to buy the textbook at all, but are taking their chances at lower grades or resorting to work-arounds like sharing textbooks, photocopying from classmates, or finding illegal copies.

This webinar will introduce you to what OERs are (and aren’t) and how librarians can support this movement as advocates, advisors, and participants in creating OERs.
