Subject: [aaslforum] Free webinars for librarians: Carterette Series July 18


The Georgia Library Association is pleased to announce the July 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. 
 
Emerging Technologies: Tips and Strategies for Success in Libraries
Presented by Roy Cummings
July 18th, 2012
2pm to 3pm Eastern Time (What time is that for me?)
 
REGISTER 
 
Emerging technologies have become an ever-present part of our academic lives. 
>From communicating with library supporters to providing resources for distance 
learners, educators must think about the tools we use and how we use them. What 
do we use? How? Why? These are some of the questions that constantly present 
themselves as we wade through the pool of emerging technologies. For libraries 
that do not have staff dedicated to digital initiatives, deciding on which tools 
to use and how to effectively use them can be challenging. This session aims to 
provide practical insight into understanding emerging technologies and tips for 
identifying and implementing relevant tools and services. 
 
Designing Vibrant Libraries: Using our Strengths to Create the Libraries of the 
Future
Presented by Michael Porter
July 18th, 2012
3:15pm to 4:15pm Eastern Time (What time is that for me?) 
 
REGISTER 
 
Join Michael as we take a thought-provoking stroll through library history, 
technology evolution and our shared humanity. We'll examine what makes libraries 
work at the most basic levels, and how our jobs, right now, have the potential 
to create a foundation for a stunningly vibrant future for libraries and the 
communities they serve. Come ponder concepts like need, desire, human nature, 
society and technology and leave more inspired about your work and your life as 
an information professional. Read more from Michael athttp://libraryman.com.
