Hi,    

     

Pardon the cross-postings.  
    

     

Ann   Reed, the Federal Programs Coordinator at  the State Library, and I will coordinate Gale training sessions over the next  few months.  We are utilizing a combination approach.  You may attend  a webinar, view an archived webinar, and/or attend various on-site trainings  around the state.     

     

The first offering is a “Welcome  to Gale” webinar.  Kurt Stovall, our Gale trainer, will introduce  you to the databases in our statewide package and explain the very basics of  the interface.  You have 9 options to join this Oregon-specific webinar in  August.     

     

·         Dates:  August 18th, 21st,  or 31st    

·         Times:  9:00 to 10:00, 10:30 to  11:30, or 3:30 to 4:30 (Time options apply to all 3 dates above.)    

·         Registration:  No need to  register.      

·         Equipment:  You need a computer  with an Internet connection and a  phone.    

·         Instructions:  See the attached  instruction sheet.  If you did not receive the attachment, email me for a  copy.  Be sure to read it before  joining a session as it provides some good tips for making sure your computer  is webinar-ready.    

·         Identify Your Library:  When  logging in to the webinar, please use the space marked Company to identify your  library.    

     

The Gale support site also has a  calendar that lists regularly-scheduled free webinars which focus on specific  databases.  Anyone from around the world may join these 1 hour sessions,  but you must register ahead of time.  http://www.attendeenet.com/gale_training/  Click on a calendar entry to be linked to more information, including the  registration page.  We’ll send links to archived webinars soon.    

 On-site training times and locations  still need to be confirmed, but these are the dates:    

             September 9th, 10th, and 11th    

             October 13th, 14th, and 27th    

             November 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th     

     

Please help us spread the word about the  August webinars.      

     

Thanks,    

Jen
