WebJunction Webinars

The Power of Image: presenting with the brain in mind

Time & Date: 6 November 2012; 2:00 Eastern / 11:00 Pacific

Description: The human brain is wired to respond to images. Scientific studies of the brain are providing powerful insights for designing and delivering presentations that grab the attention of the learner. Once you understand the key concepts of strong visual communication, you can get unstuck from the stale text-and-bullet format of presentation. You don’t need to be a designer to learn some simple tips and tricks that will punch up your presentations and wake up your audience.

Presenter: Betha Gutsche, program manager, WebJunction OCLC, and visual communications advocate


Energize your base: Tips and tools to raise awareness and build support for library services

Time & Date: 14 November 2012; 1:00 Eastern / 10:00 Pacific

Description: We know that libraries are a good investment but with tight budgets, we need to energize our base – to take action to connect more strongly with community members, to find out what excites them, and to let them know how libraries are changing lives – one connection at a time. Our panel will explore three vehicles that can help you increase awareness of library services:

Library Videos – New videos from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation that showcase work done in libraries which are transforming lives, by changing the way we connect.

Geek the Library – A community awareness campaign offered free to libraries to help strengthen community connections and library support.

Data Visualization – We collect lots of data. Learn how the Colorado State Library is helping local libraries use their data to tell a story about impact.

Presenters: Karen Perry, Senior Program Officer, Global Libraries, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; Jennifer Pearson, Programs Manager, OCLC Community Relations; Jamie Hollier, Project Manager with PLA and Library Consultant; and Linda Hofschire, Research

Infopeople Webinars

Communicating Through Infographics

Time & Date: 14 November 2012; Start Time: Pacific - 12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM

Description:

·                     Have you noticed the growing trend of communicating through infographics?
·                     Do you wonder where the data comes from and how to verify information displayed in visual form?
·                     Would you rather read a 100 page report or look at a visual presentation that conveys the story in less than one minute?
·                     Would you like to tell a compelling story about your library through the medium of infographics?

Visual representation of information has existed for hundreds of years in various forms and formats. Infographics (information graphics) represent the latest visual form to gain popularity. Telling an effective story through infographics requires accurate data, compelling design, and visualization tools.

During this one-hour webinar, we will discuss and demonstrate:

·                     blogs and infographic search resources to find examples and track trends
·                     differences between infographics, poster art, and data visualization
·                     common data sources used in infographics (big data and local sources)
·                     suggest library-specific data and statistics appropriate for visual presentation
·                     visualization tools for experimentation

This webinar will be of interest to library staff at all levels and in all types of libraries who need to present information to customers, stakeholders, and management. Senior staff and directors responsible for board reporting are especially encouraged to attend.

Presenter: Dawne Tortorella

Transforming Traditional Library Services: Text a Librarian – Ideas for Best Practices

Time & Date: 15 November 2012; Start Time: Pacific - 12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM

Description: Series: The Mobile Revolution and Libraries: 2nd of 4

The mobile revolution – the use of mobile devices to access information, communication, and entertainment networks and services from many locations – is one of the fastest, most pervasive technological revolutions in the history of humankind. The pace of change, the plethora of devices and new versions, the battle for operating system supremacy, and the app explosion have resulted in a dizzying matrix of problems, challenges, and opportunities for libraries and library workers.

Librarians are working hard and fast to determine what services and materials can be offered on mobile devices. With each new platform (web, mobile, etc), librarians need to be familiar with it and the types of services that can be offered on each platform. In reference services, we have moved from in-person to adding instant messaging, chat, and now mobile.

This one-hour seminar will provide attendees with a brief history of mobile reference services, options for mobile reference services, and best practices.

At the end of this one-hour webinar, the second of a four-part series, participants will:

·                     Understand how mobile reference services work
·                      Identify some of the software/vendors that supply mobile reference services
·                      Be familiar with the types of questions best answered via mobile reference
·                      Share best practices for mobile reference services

This webinar will be of interest to library staff on all levels from all types of libraries, especially public services and information technology library workers, as well as middle and senior management.

This is the second in a series of four webinars presented by Tom Peters and guest speakers.

Webinar 1: The Mobile Revolution and Libraries Sep 27, 2012.
Webinar 2: Text a Librarian Nov 15, 2012.
Webinar 3: QR Codes Jan 17, 2013.
Webinar 4: Mobile Website Design Mar 14, 2013.

Lois Lowry LIVE!

The two-time Newbery Medalist discusses Son, the sequel to The Giver.

Broadcasting LIVE from The Maurice J. Tobin K-8 School

Time & Date: Wednesday, November 7, 2012– 1:00 PM ET

Description: Lois Lowry’s breakthrough dystopian novel, The Giver has been read by millions of people around the world. It left many with lingering questions: What happened to Jonas and Gabriel? Is a perfect society possible? What does it mean to live a complete life? With Son, Lowry continues to wrestle with the idea of human freedom while completing the story of Jonas and the baby he rescued.

Son combines elements from the first three novels in her Giver Quartet—The Giver (1994 Newbery Medal winner), Gathering Blue, and Messenger—into a breathtaking, thought-provoking narrative that wrestles with ideas of human freedom and the bonds of love. Thrust again into the chilling world of The Giver, readers will meet an intriguing new heroine, fourteen-year-old Claire.

Join Lois Lowry to hear her speak about Son, the other books of The Giver Quartet, and to have a chance to ask her your questions live!
