Teleconference Focuses on Engaging Library Users
The final College of DuPage 2007-2008 Library Challenges & Opportunities teleconference is scheduled for May 9, 12 noon to 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time. "Tools of Engagement: Attracting and Engaging Library Users," examines the ways in which libraries are working to creatively engage current and potential users.
The program discussion will go beyond PR, exploring new ideas for reaching and involving users, as well as how patrons are shaping library services, programs and spaces. The four panelists include an accomplished library social marketer and outreach librarian, a very successful public library director who has integrated her library with other public agencies, a leader in college student engagement programs and a recent MLS graduate exploring new ideas.
BCR offers access to the College of DuPage teleconferences at no charge to members through the generous support of our state library agencies and the Colorado Library Consortium (CLiC).
Access options on the day of the teleconference include viewing the webcast from any location with adequate Internet access, either from a desktop or at a group viewing location. Archived webcasts are available for 30 days following the live broadcast or a DVD of the broadcast is available for purchase for $30 each.
