<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>Last week Gale had
two technology glitches during the <i>Opposing Viewpoints in Context</i> (OVIC)
webinars that they hosted for Oregon users.  As a result, one webinar was
canceled, and Gale was not able to record a session as requested.  In
response, Gale is offering a make-up webinar, if you will, on <span
style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>Thursday, September 2<sup>nd</sup>
at 12:30 pm PDT</span>.  It is open to anyone in Oregon, not just those
who were part of the session that got canceled.  After that, the next OVIC
webinars for Oregon users will be on October 12<sup>th</sup> and 13<sup>th</sup>.

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:blue'>Other options for training
are webinars offered at the national level and self-study.  Gale has three
tutorials posted for <i>Opposing Viewpoints in Context</i> and three for <i>Student
Resources in Context</i>, formerly called <i>Student Resource Center</i>. 
<a href="http://www.gale.cengage.com/guidedtour/index.htm">http://www.gale.cengage.com/guidedtour/index.htm</a> 
>From their national training calendar, I see that there are SRIC sessions on

(Click on the orange bubble called Training Calendar.)  National webinars
are free, but you have to register ahead of time and be mindful of time zones. 
To register, click on the relevant session listed on Gale’s national
training calendar, and click on the Register button at the bottom of the Event
