"Incubate
leadership @ your library"
Date & Time: 16
October 2012, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time [UTC -4]
Description: Effective leadership in a library community is not
performed by any one person. Instead, it is a collective act of many players
contributing their toolset of complementary and evolving skills. Leadership
"incubates" best in an environment nurtured by collaborative and
continuous learning; it often grows accidentally, sometimes unbeknownst to the
leader-to-be. Through peer mentoring and other methods, explore ways to create
a generative space that nourishes the infectious qualities of leadership.
Develop a network of seasoned learners who will incubate leadership, both
within your library and in support of the broader community, collaboratively
building and leading a rich and fulfilling learning organization.
Presenter: Jennifer Peterson,
Community Manager, OCLC WebJunction, Board Member ARSL, and 2011 LJ Mover

"Getting
Boys to Read: Seeing Your Library Through a Guy’s Eyes"
Date & Time: Thursday,
October 4, 2012, 3:00 - 4:00 PM ET/12:00 - 1:00 PM PT
Description: Ever help a guy find food in the refrigerator? In this
fun and informative webinar, you’ll discover how some everyday observations -
like that time you maybe helped a guy find the mayo that was right in the front
of the fridge - are really vital clues for thinking about getting boys to read
in your library.
In
addition to the fun, the serious side of the topic will be addressed, including
why the gap between boys’ and girls’ reading levels is a major concern among
health experts and educators, and why the vast majority of reluctant readers
are boys. Attendees will learn some tips to promote and support genres that
boys like, including comic books, graphic novels, sports, and nonfiction, as
well as some ideas for creating reading role models and communities for boys
grades K-12. If you want ways to get books in the hands of your guys - and take
a different look at how we think about getting boys to read - this session will
inspire you.
Panelists
include author and education writer Richard Whitmire and graphic novels
reviewer and librarian M. Brandon Robbins. The webcast will feature information
on the March 2010 Center on Education Policy report on the reading gap for
boys, a “Comic Books & Literacy” research compilation, a white paper called
“Football Literacy” on how sports have a greater reach than ever among young
boys, and related research and materials.

Description: PLEASE NOTE: This webinar is California-centric and

Legal Research Resources Series: 1 of 4
· Can someone really address every aspect of a legal issue by

How do I get someone started on addressing legal issues?

If a customer asks me to find a legal form, can I? Should I?
·
How can I help a customer with a legal question and not be held

Helping library customers understand legal
resources can be both daunting and rewarding. The idea of public access to

environment, trained staffers, convenient location and free computer access to
the Internet as the ideal place to find the information people need.
This webinar will prepare you to act as a
compass and guide to point your users in the right direction for gaining a
better understanding of the legal system and how to navigate it successfully.
You will also learn when to answer questions, when to teach users to find their
answers, and when and where to refer them for additional help.
At the end of this one-hour webinar, attendees
will:
·
Have a set of best practices for assisting the public with their
legal questions and without fear of liability
·
Know how laws, regulations and opinions produced by the three
branches of government impact our individual rights and obligations as citizens
·
Be able to comfortably direct users to free or low cost attorney
referral services, legal service and government agencies, forms and handbooks
·
Develop a familiarity with common legal terms users come across
when navigating the legal system
·
Understand the various types and key elements differentiating
self-help legal resources available on the Internet and in public law
