Bailey-Hainer Speaking at Next Generation of Resource Sharing Seminar
BCR's executive director, Brenda Bailey-Hainer, and Mark Beatty, Wisconsin Library Services (WiLS) training and automation librarian, are the featured speakers at the Next Generation of Resource Sharing Seminar, March 13, 9 a.m.-4 p.m., at the University of Wisconsin Pyle Center in Madison.
The one-day workshop includes a full morning of presentations and an afternoon of discussions and ideas for long-term resource sharing directions and planning. Topics will be all about the future of resource sharing and will focus on big picture and idea sharing by librarians responsible for access and public services, concentrating exclusively on where resource sharing is going, how to get there and meeting patrons expectations, needs and demands.
This seminar is not intended to be a how-to-do-it on resource sharing. Instead, for this one day, participants will be encouraged to think and dream big and wild.
The registration fee is $95, including lunch. Library staff from outside Wisconsin are welcome to attend.
An online registration form is now posted. For more details on the conference, visit the WiLS Resource Sharing 2.0 Web page.
