"LibraryBox: Portable Private Digital Distribution"
Date
& Time: Tuesday, June 4, 2013.
Start Time: Pacific -
12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM
Description:
- Looking for an
inexpensive way to distribute digital materials to non-library locations and
enhance your traditional library services?
- Have someone on your
staff or a volunteer who likes to tinker with gadgets?
LibraryBox is an open
source project designed to allow for the distribution of digital materials
(books, music, movies, datasets) in the absence of reliable Internet
connectivity. The hardware that LibraryBox uses is very inexpensive ($35) and
the code is freely available, making it an attractive option for outreach and
service to underserved areas for libraries.
LibraryBox is a key
that can unlock many possibilities for your services. This webinar will discuss
how you can build your own LibraryBox, use-cases (systems to accomplish a
particular goal), the development of the project from its beginnings, and where
it’s headed in the future.
At the end of this
one-hour webinar, participants will:
- Understand the scope
of the LibraryBox Project and why it is beneficial to libraries and their
customers.
- Understand “use
cases” and how they apply for LibraryBox for different types of libraries.
- Know how to build a
basic LibraryBox of their own.
This webinar will be
of interest to any library or librarian who is interested in digital
distribution of materials to non-library locations.
Webinars are
free of charge; you can pre-register by clicking on the Join Webinar button now

"Community Led Library Service Development"
Date
& Time: Wednesday, June 12,
2013. Start Time: Pacific - 12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3
PM
Description:
-
Do you want to find a way to provide public library services needed and wanted
by diverse community sectors—without adding projects or increasing budget?
-
Do you believe the library can play and important role in community members’
civic engagement?
-
How do you determine what staff should be doing in order to offer the best
library services for your community?
Community-led service
development has a long history in British public libraries and a nearly
decade-long track record in Canada. Instead of adding projects or tasks to
library staff in an effort to promote library services, the community-led
approach establishes the library staff as trained listeners and brokers of
awareness to provide service development for both marginalized and comfortable
community sectors.
The community-led
approach helps the library to identify which traditional library roles are now
redundant, and thus of little worth to the community, allowing both
professional library staff and support staff to concentrate on those services
that are meaningful to the public.
Community-led service
development allows both the community and its library staff to grow, become
engaged in the civic sphere they share and find the best venues for individuals
to pursue their aspirations for their primary needs of health and welfare, as
well as life-long learning and the support of personal values.
At the end of this
one-hour webinar, participants will:
- Be able to identify
the key aspects of community-led service development that differentiate it from
traditional outreach and/or customer service approaches.
- Be prepared to
identify and research model community-led public library service providers that
match your library’s size and staffing levels.
- Be able to determine
whether community-led library service development can improve your local
library’s potential as a civic service agency.
- Understand and be
able to communicate to public library stakeholders the major issues associated
with the community-led service development approach – including training, tax
support, and mission realization.
This webinar will be
of interest to public library directors, managers, trustees and commissioners,
as well as library educators

"Amp up Your Technology Training"
Date
& Time: 04 June 2013. 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight
Time [UTC -4]
Description:
More Americans than ever are coming to their
libraries to access the Internet and get help connecting with their families,
the job market and online services. Many library visitors lack basic computer
skills, or need to learn the essential technology skills to apply for and land
a job. With continual technology change, libraries are challenged to provide
quality, up-to-date curriculum for their communities.
OASIS Connections, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting successful aging through lifelong learning, healthy living and social engagement, has partnered with urban and rural libraries across the country to provide a cost-effective training solution that helps adults of all ages develop technology skills and confidence. Learn how different library systems have adopted the program to serve varying local needs.

"Support Patron Learning in Small Spaces with Small
Budgets"
Date
& Time: 12 June 2013. 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time [UTC -4]
Description:
In small communities, libraries can often be the only provider
of free public access to technology and the internet. And as more people turn
to their library to learn technology skills, even the tiniest of libraries are
faced with the challenge of providing training to patrons with limited staff,
resources, and space. Learn from small and rural libraries who are making
training a reality for their patrons, using volunteers, leveraging partnerships
and integrating learning into everyday interactions. Whether the technology
training you do (or want to do) is one-to-one, on-the-fly or a more formal
program, this session will include tips and suggestions for improving the
effectiveness of the training you provide. This webinar is hosted in
collaboration with
TechSoup for
Libraries
and the Association
for Rural and Small Libraries.
Presenters:
Brenda Hough and Stephanie Gerding, consultants, TechSoup
for Libraries and Wendy Street, director, Pella Public
Library, Iowa.
