You may have heard of Facebook and MySpace but are you familiar with LinkedIN? This social networking site has become one of the most popular sites for those wanted to create a professional presence on the Internet. In this workshop, we will explore LinkedIn features such as Profiles, Contacts, and Job Searching. We will also examine various "groups" available in the LinkedIn network where we can share ideas, write or receive professional recommendations, as well as enhance our knowledge of library issues.

Redesigning Flyers in Publisher 2010 - March 28th (Darien PL)
Do your flyers have the impact you want? This course combines a discussion on flyer design as well as, a hands on approach to redoing
flyers. We'll be talking about what makes an effective flyer while  critiquing your samples and samples of your fellow students. We'll
then go to the computers to do "makeovers' with our knew found knowledge. A working knowledge of Microsoft Publisher is required for
this class. Please bring samples of your work and an open mind.

Topics include:
*Identifying the elements of good flyer design
*Determining what makes some flyers work better than others
*Seeing the effect of color and fonts on flyers
