<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F3864">Libraries have quickly pivoted in the last several months to moving their programs and events to a virtual environment. The early months were about figuring
out "the how" and getting new routines in place. Now it is time to find meaningful ways to evaluate and assess the success of what we are offering. How does program success in a virtual world differ from in person programs and events? What data should we collect?
How do we get feedback? These questions and more will be explored in this webinar.<br>
<br>
Additionally, Meg DePriest, from the California State Library, will share briefly about the Public Library Survey and what data elements are there for Virtual Programming.<br>
<br>
<b>This webinar will be of interest to</b>: Library staff who want to be able to collect data from virtual events.
<b>Some of the content may be specific to California libraries</b>. California Libraries Learn (CALL) is a collaborative project of the California Library Association and the California State Library, and is supported in whole or in part by the U.S. Institute
of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the library. But what can we do the rest of the time, before a crisis arises? Using both outward and inward facing tools, there are simple steps that boards and library staff can integrate into their communication processes, to be better prepared for unknown
changes. Learn about these tools and how they can set the stage for dealing more effectively with any crisis your library faces in the future.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#1F3864">Understanding veterans and where they come from is a large part of what we do in public libraries, especially in terms of being an inclusive and welcoming
hub of information for people from all walks of life. Starting a conversation with a veteran can be difficult, however, if we don’t know who they are. And sometimes veterans don’t even know who they are. Others don’t think they have the right to ask for resources.
Others just don’t want to talk about their past. But the veteran population in California remains the largest in the United States. There are an estimated 19.5 million veterans in the United States, and most of us are a veteran, or have a veteran family member,
or are friends with a veteran. Organizations and resources available to veterans are constantly changing. Especially now, as many people are seeking new employment after the pandemic has affected job security throughout the country, it is vital for librarians
to understand the veteran community – veteran service organizations providing resources and the people who seek them.
<br>
<br>
This webinar will cover aspects of veteran culture, how to tap into some amazing tools to help them connect with the wider veteran community, and how to add to our outreach efforts so that our long-term mission in public libraries always includes serving those
who have served.<br>
<br>
<b>This webinar will be of interest to:</b> Library staff seeking resources for underserved populations, including the diversity of people who have served in the military and the people who care about them.
