“Facilitating Multi-Dimensional Listening: Helping Groups Identify Common Ground while Acknowledging Differences”
Date & Time: February 7th, 2018. Start Time: Pacific - 12 Noon, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM.
Description: Many of us are familiar with the practice of "active listening." This webinar will help facilitators and discussion leaders further develop their skills to listen beneath the surface of what's being said. You will receive instruction in advanced facilitation concepts supported by examples from fellow librarians. Skill in multi-dimensional listening is particularly relevant in today's society when people can be extra sensitive to identity and position. Learn how to help the entire group listen together more skillfully for clues to where there might be common ground while respecting differences that arise. Join us to hone your listening and facilitation skills and bring questions from your own experiences.
This session is hosted by the California State Library, represented by Suzanne Flint. The lead presenter will be Susan Stuart Clark, with case examples curated from California librarians experienced in facilitating multi-dimensional listening.
This webinar will be of interest to: Librarians and library staff who have had experience designing and facilitating group discussions on important issues and are interested in deepening their group process skills.

OCLC Webinars
“Mitigating microaggressions in virtual reference”
Date & Time: 21 February 2018. 2:30 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, North America [UTC -5]
Presenter: Marie Radford, Ph.D. Professor and Director, Ph.D. Program, Communication, Information and Library Studies, Rutgers University
Description: Microaggressions are intentional or non-intentional verbal, behavioral and environmental indignities towards marginalized individuals. Microaggressions are subtle, nuanced, and difficult to detect and address, especially in virtual environments. This presentation reports results from qualitative content analysis of a large, longitudinal, random sample of QuestionPoint virtual reference service (VRS) sessions (drawn from 2006, 2010, and 2016). In this time of heightened online conflict, attendees will be provided with research-based examples and guidelines to help them to both recognize microaggressions and to minimize them to enhance service excellence.

Date & Time: 22 February 2018. 2:00 PM – 2:45 PM Eastern Standard Time, North America [UTC -5]
Description:
During this 45-minute demonstration of WorldShare Management Services (WMS), you will learn how WorldShare License Manager brings together the two key features of electronic resource management: (1) knowledge about licenses that govern the subscription and use, and (2) knowledge base and linking technology that connect users to needed content in a single place.
License Manager: You will see how to reduce the complexity of managing all of your licenses and how you can eliminate the need to synchronize data across multiple interfaces to manage license agreements, rights, access and resolution to full text.
WorldCat knowledge base: You will see how the knowledge base provides comprehensive data about the e-resources of member libraries, automatically updating records in WorldCat, thus giving instant access to licensed resources for users. Also, you will see there is no additional necessary uploading or synchronization of licensed resources with local catalogs.

- Understand how your library can gain more visibility on the Web through OCLC's partnerships with leading search engines and popular sites
- Hear how simple these OCLC services are to configure and maintain, and how they build on OCLC services your library already may use.
