Mention collection development and most librarians think of the selection of new materials for the library. Weeding - removing library materials from your collection - is an often forgotten, yet integral part of collection development. In this updated course
you will first discover why that is true, and then learn the techniques of weeding, develop policies and avoid common pitfalls. <br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F4E79">Wikipedia is a go-to resource for health and medical information, not just for the general public but for health care providers as well. Over 50% of physicians,
and 94% of medical students use Wikipedia to find medical information on the internet.* It may be popular but library staff want to know how reliable it is and how to assess quality on behalf of their patrons. The National Network of Librarians of Medicine
(NNLM) supports strengthening the ability of public libraries nationwide to find reliable and authoritative medical and health information online for information seekers. Hear how Liz Waltman from the NNLM connects with WikiProject Medicine, an organization
of volunteers dedicated to developing, maintaining, and promoting accurate medical information on Wikipedia. Learn about the upcoming online training program Wikipedia + Libraries: Health and Medical Information that will empower you to confidently guide your
patrons to reliable resources on the internet. The free four-week course will be offered in the fall of 2019.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

environment that truly meets the needs of the community your library serves. The prospect of technology planning can seem overwhelming and time-consuming, especially in an already short-staffed library. This webinar will help libraries create a framework for
their technology planning and introduce the tools and decisions that need to be incorporated into a working plan. Join us to learn how to successfully develop and implement a practical technology plan that can help move your library and community forward.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
