<strong>Workshop Description: </strong><br>
Is your library taking advantage of the free Add-ons for Firefox? One of
the great features of Firefox, the popular open-source web browser, is the
ability to create, share, and use add-ons, making Firefox a more flexible and
customizable tool than competing web browsers. Come to this hands-on training
to learn how you and your library can make use of these free tools. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Add-ons to be discussed include <o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Our panel of experts includes: Theresa Yancey (Reference Librarian,
Chemeketa Community College Library) who will discuss a variety of Firefox
plugins for personal and professional use; Nicholas Schiller (Systems &
Instruction librarian, WSU Vancouver Library) who will discuss accessibility
plugins for Firefox; Michael Bowman (Engineering Librarian, Portland State
University Library) who will discuss the Zotero citation management tool; and
James Bunnelle (Acquisitions/Collection Development Librarian, Lewis &
Clark College Library) who will discuss the LibX application.<br>
<br>
The panel will also discuss technical and administrative challenges and
solutions involved in modding and extending software on both staff and
workstation computers, the comparative advantages of closed source and open
source software solutions, and other topics relating to web browsers and
extending software. Please come ready to contribute to a vibrant conversation
about the new possibilities and challenges raised by this emerging technology. <o:p></o:p></p>
