[kids-lib] Upcoming ALSC Online Education

[Katie Anderson]

Hi! The email below describes upcoming online courses and a Common Core State Standard webinar training they offering several different days and times this fall by ALA's Association for Library Services to Children (ALSC). While these courses cost quite a bit of money, remember there is no travel involved and in most cases you can participate whenever works best for your schedule. There are a few courses you may be particularly interested in given Oregon's current education landscape and the role public libraries can play to support it. I've highlighted those courses in yellow.

Questions? Please contact Kristen Sutherland, ALSC Program Officer for Continuing Education, at 312-280-4026 or ksutherland at ala.org<mailto:ksutherland at ala.org>.
