On behalf of the Carterette Webinar Series...


The Georgia Library Association is pleased to announce the September 2012 
sessions of the Carterette Series Webinars.
 
The Carterette Series is a bi-monthly educational webinar series highlighting 
trends, innovation, and best practices in libraries. The free sessions are open 
to interested parties from all geographic (and astral) locations. Topics are 
chosen to be of interest to students and employees from all library types, and 
each session is approved for one Georgia Continuing Education (CE) contact hour.
 
Can't make it to the live show? That's okay! The sessions will be recorded and 
available on the CSW site for later viewing.
 
23 Things: The Next Generation
Presented by Christa Burns
September 19, 2012
2pm to 3pm Eastern Time (What time is that for me?)
REGISTER
 
The 23 Things concept is familiar to most of us in the library world. Some have 
tried it out, some have tried a version of it, some still have doubts about 
whether it works, and some think it's over. Well, I'm here to tell you, it's 
still going strong! Nebraska's state-wide lifelong learning program, Nebraska 
Learns 2.0 (http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/nelearns/ ), started as a 16 week 
program in 2008-2009. The original program was so popular it has continued as an 
ongoing program, with one new Thing offered each month since April 2009. 
Starting in February 2012, a BookThing was added to the program. Program 
organizer Christa Burns will talk about the process the organizers have laid out 
over the past few years, how they've responded to participant feedback, and how 
the program became what it is today. She will also show other current examples 
of self-directed online learning programs, such as Boston Public Library's 
Learning for Life Online and the UK-based 23 Things for Professional 
Development.
 
Circulating Ideas: Creating a Personal Learning Network for Librarians
Presented by Steve Thomas
September 19, 2012
3:15pm to 4:15pm Eastern Time (What time is that for me?)
REGISTER
 
The field of librarianship is evolving at a rapidly-increasing pace, making it 
more important than ever to keep up with new ideas and trends. A Personal 
Learning Network (PLN) is one of the best ways to stay on top of new 
developments. Join Steve Thomas as he talks about what a PLN is and explores 
ways you can create and curate your own PLN to increase your professional 
knowledge base and connect with your peers.
