<P>Many librarians facilitate trainings and teach classes, but few of us are
formally trained to deliver information effectively in front of an audience.
Feeling under-skilled as a public speaker can make librarians dread giving a
talk, and feeling pressure to teach everything important in a single session can
make us bombard students with too much information. Participants in this lively,
hands-on class will learn how to go beyond slide software to better engage and
educate an audience both during a library instruction session and after the
session ends. The first half of the class will focus on public speaking skills
and audience engagement strategies, with an emphasis on the structure and timing
of spoken presentations. Participants will be encouraged (but not compelled) to
practice these new techniques in front of the group. After a short break, the
class will resume with a crash course in document design principles and
processes for creating content-rich instructional materials. Participants will
be seated at individual computers and will be given time to practice these
document design principles by editing a template file provided by the
facilitator. Upon completing this class, participants will be prepared to
improve their library instruction sessions by always developing their
presentations in two parts: an engaging in-class lesson and a well-designed,
web-accessible document for students to learn from later.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P>Information scattered and disorganized can overwhelm. The same information
organized can be a thing of utility and even beauty. How then do we manage
“information overload”? We ignore or eliminate information at our peril. Better
is an approach that seeks to organize our information and our interactions with
this information in accordance with the roles we mean to fulfill in our lives
and the goals we wish to achieve. This is the point of personal information
management or PIM. In this course, you will learn about PIM and how it can be
applied in your life. The course will include a hands-on segment during which
you will identify and refine a personal unifying taxonomy (PUT). Your PUT
provides a basis for “placing” and organizing the information you need to lead
the live the life you want to live.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P>How are people using the Internet to support their health information needs?
What are their objectives, triggers? How does their level of health literacy
affect what they get out of it and their degree of success? What is the role of
physicians and nurses? There’s a growing chasm between healthcare professionals
and consumers concerning the large role of the Internet in consumers’ use of the
healthcare system and their decision making about their healthcare. What can
librarians do to help consumers obtain and manage the information they need for
their healthcare? And how can librarians help bridge the chasm between
healthcare professionals and e-Patients? What are the methodologies used &
skills required to design a health web site for consumers, based on a
consumer-driven process?<o:p></o:p></P>

<P>The freely available PubMed API (application programming interface) makes it
possible for programmers from outside of the National Library of Medicine to
develop alternatives to <A href="http://pubmed.gov/">PubMed.gov</A> for
searching NLM’s vast database of biomedical journal literature citations. This
three-hour workshop will introduce several popular and free third-party PubMed
tools, comparing and contrasting them with the <A
href="http://pubmed.gov/">PubMed.gov</A> interface. Through case studies, group
exercises and hands-on practice, participants will become familiar with the
strengths and limitations of search tools such as HubMed, PubGet, Novoseek, and
Quertle. This workshop is intended for intermediate and advanced PubMed
searchers.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P>In this presentation the Oregon State University MobileLib team will discuss
why OSU Libraries chose to spend time and resources developing a mobile site.
The team will review the current status of mobile statistics and demographics
information, take a look at examples of mobile sites, compare options for mobile
catalogs, discuss what is currently hot in mobile library sites, and cover best
practices for creating your own user-friendly mobile library site. This
presentation is intended for librarians just beginning the process of mobilizing
their Web site and will provide you with the tools to make a strong argument to
your library management about the importance of having a mobile Web
site.<o:p></o:p></P>
