<p><strong>Workshop Description: </strong><br>
Do you ever feel like you need to be an expert on <em>everything</em> when you
staff the reference desk or virtual reference service? Providing good reference
service requires up-to-date information on all sorts of ever-changing topics.
Come to this workshop for a refresher on these seven important reference areas:
search engines; science reference; medical reference; government documents;
business reference; legal reference; and copyright law. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In this hands-on training, expert librarians will review a few essential
resources in their field of expertise, and then provide an update about what is
new and important in that field. We’ve asked our experts to both cover
some basics and discuss new developments and resources in their subject area,
and maybe share a treasure or two the rest of us might not know about.<br>
