[Regan Harper]

Dear Colleagues,

One of the greatest strengths of LYRASIS is its community of members. As one way to highlight that strength we're presenting the LYRASIS Member Showcase<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001pxnubU5nZ6cxAI2vMiuFs2sAVZrRBTkoIwVaunD8xBhVqtCPDdrqz71gqgnVqH3teUT62m905Pp3kmxUfIipL7pagfE4OGPVgJVqjoCBR9Bxg5qTEFk1wfiI2VwuykFKsl9hvdYKbAmwE5KiX4NIXXxE8MABMxZVIx_xDhQJw8auc7kc9QYd3laiJmEWFm9CFW2KhLR6UjKa74pZ5oaWhneftSa_IvrETi9BaZ1kozGEytrzbjlUzg==>, a FREE webinar that will showcase members and their notable library advancements.

November 14 from 1 - 2 p.m. ET - FREE for members

In this session, you will hear from Gina Persichini, the Networking Consultant at the Idaho Commission for Libraries and representatives from the Boise Public Library at Hillcrest, who will discuss their experiences utilizing library resources to work with refugees in their community. During 2012, the Idaho Commission for Libraries partnered with the Idaho Office for Refugees to help improve literacy skills among the refugee populations in Idaho. Using a train-the-trainer model, refugees learned to use technology tools to find employment, use common technology communication tools, interact with family located in other countries and more. Presenters will identify success factors and lessons learned along the way.

I hope you'll register today<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001pxnubU5nZ6cxAI2vMiuFs2sAVZrRBTkoIwVaunD8xBhVqtCPDdrqz71gqgnVqH3teUT62m905Pp3kmxUfIipL7pagfE4OGPVgJVqjoCBR9Bxg5qTEFk1wfiI2VwuykFKsl9hvdYKbAmwE5KiX4NIXXxE8MABMxZVIx_xDhQJw8auc7kc9QYd3laiJmEWFm9CFW2KhLR6UjKa74pZ5oaWhneftSa_IvrETi9BaZ1kozGEytrzbjlUzg==>!
