Maybe you had a great conversation during a breakout session at a conference that you would like to explore in more depth. Join us online for Conversation Sparks!
Library: Southern Maryland Regional LibraryConversation Sparks is a way to facilitate a large-scale conversation with librarians around the country. In this virtual environment, participants will meet with the purpose of exchanging ideas, exploring best practices, and learning from others in the profession. It is a way to break paradigms and learn from the examples of others in an environment of respect and understanding. Each session will feature a new topic of conversation centered on the needs, concerns, and trends in today’s libraries. Speakers will consist of volunteers from the library community and beyond with a common goal of advocating and sharing their particular area of expertise. A subject expert will introduce the topic which will be followed by examples in the field from around the country. Sessions are not meant to be static, but are intended to spark conversations, generate new ideas, ignite passions, and help fuel enthusiasm for the profession. Our October session focuses on STEM Programs in Libraries with examples from libraries across the country. If you have an example of a STEM library project or porgram, share it with us during our Open Sharing portion of the session. Registration Ends: 10/21/2013 at 12:00 AM Other Information: This platform uses VOIP. A headset and high speed internet is required.
