Writing Webinar

Sirsi is having a webinar in July with a focus on publishing for library professionals. I've been very pleased with previous Sirsi Institute webinars, so if you're interested in learning about publishing for your profession, make the time to attend.

Writing for the Library Profession

Date : Jul 10, 2007
Start Time : 11 a.m. Eastern
Length : 01:00:00

Do you want to inform and influence your colleagues? Do you have a story to tell? Have you done something innovative that delighted your users? We don't have a paucity of ideas and innovation in libraryland, we do have a problem with diffusion. We need to share our ideas and experiences more. From blog postings, to periodical and newsletter articles to website content and even to books library staff are increasingly being asked to write. With the dynamic and rapid change happening in our sector, we have an increasing obligation to share our knowledge and experiences. It's an exciting time to be in libraries.
