<p class="MsoNormal"><span><br>
</span><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="background:white">For the past five years, libraries around the world have been training their staffs about online tools using the "23 Things" model. Over the past two years, Jennifer Koerber of the Boston
Public Library has been developing a way to bring that kind of online training to library users as well. In this week's session, Koerber will present one model for an informal online learning program for patrons & the general public. She will examine the possibilities
and pitfalls, look at organizational tools that can scale to a large, diverse participant base, and show off the pilot program recently launched by the Boston Public Library. You'll come away with relevant examples from the past few years, the latest developments,
and ideas for bringing online learning to your library.</span></span><span></span></p>

never do again. Join us and learn about the program from several perspectives: the administrator, the trainer, and the conference attendee.<br>

just looking to libraries for answers to specific questions—they want partners and guides in a life long information-seeking journey. By transforming virtual reference (VR) services into relationship-building opportunities, libraries can leverage the positive
feelings people have for libraries in a crowded online space where the biggest players often don't have the unique experience and specific strengths that librarians offer.</span></span><span>

– designers, chefs, writers, landscapers, crafters, techies, and other imaginative problem-solvers – are expected to play a leading role in the economic recovery. Consultants George Needham and Joan Frye Williams will describe what these job-creators need
and how innovative libraries are leveraging existing assets to accommodate them.
