Gale and OSL will offer webinars in August and October to train Oregon library
staff on Gale’s new interface for <i>Opposing Viewpoints</i>. Note
that all <i>Resource Center</i> products will soon transition to the new
interface and will be called <i>In Context</i>. The databases in bold are
part of our statewide contract, but your library might subscribe to the others
on its own.<br>

incorporate content from previously separate modules).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>How to Access a Webinar<br>
</b>For information about how to access a webinar, open the PDF from the appropriate
Gale Support Site for Oregon Libraries or from OSL’s Database page (links
below). You will need a phone (landline or cellular) and a computer with
an Internet connection. Ideally, you will have a quiet space for
participating as lots of background noise makes it difficult for others to
hear.<br>
