Description:
Does your library have a social
media policy?
Chances are, it doesn't...but it
almost certainly should. Learn why you need one, and what points are essential.
Discover how writing this kind of policy can be completely different than
writing any other kind for a library, and what you might need in a policy for
staff versus what you might need to spell out for patrons.

understand some current best practices that you can use to guide you through
the process of drafting your own social media policy for your library.
At the end of this one-hour
webinar, participants will:
- Be able to identify at least
three reasons for which your library should have a social media policy.
- Be able to identify at least
five points that should be covered in a social media policy for library
employees.
- Understand how your library's
current social media policy may be breaking the law.

key difference in purpose for a policy for patrons, as opposed to employees.

to Library Administrative staff, HR staff, and those working with social media
issues.

that comes significant shifts to the way people use library spaces and
services. Rather than fearing this disruption, libraries should lean into the
change. Through mobile library services, flipped and co-learning experiences,

importance of reference skills. Join digital strategist Toby Greenwalt for an
exploration of current and emerging techniques.
At the end of this one-hour
webinar, participants will:
- Identify the opportunities
presented by changes in public technology use

integrating technology in the reference workflow

Date & Time: 03 April 2014. 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern
Daylight Time [UTC -4]

the future of learning and strategies for supporting and empowering the

using curricula, resources, and tools to help people in their communities

“Apps for iPads in the Children’s Department”
Date & Time: April
29, 2014. 2pm to 3:30pm CDT
Description: This
webinar will introduce selection criteria, review sources, and outstanding
early literacy and early math and science Apps for iPads, including Spanish and

Today’s children are growing

libraries provide iPads and Apps in their children’s departments and
incorporate Apps into their storytimes to help children develop early literacy,
math, science, and technology skills. Apps provide valuable early learning experiences
and introduce concepts and technology in a developmentally appropriate manner.
Our nation is committed to early learning as a national priority essential to
our economic and civic future. Libraries play a significant role in providing
early learning experiences that build a child’s brain, fuel a love of learning,
and contribute to success in learning to read, in school, and in life.

engaging webinar.

independent library consultant and trainer with a passion for early literacy
