A Time of Change
December 31, 2007

The advent of 2008 encourages us to create change in our lives; however, embracing change is easier said than done! Even the most positive changes come with feelings of frustration and discomfort.

• WebJunction offers a course on leadership and Managing Change in the workplace.
• Technological changes can be the most difficult to deal with. This blog entry from Library Web Chic discusses technology-driven change in the library.

Speaking of technological changes, developing new computer skills is a great idea for a personal resolution. Check out WebJunction's Course Catalog for inspiration, which includes:

• Programming languages, such as Java, C, or Visual Basic 4.0.
• Data management, such as Access 2007, PHP and MySQL, or SQL Server 6.5.
• Design, such as Photoshop, Web Design and Graphics, or Visio.

Do you have a testimonial about how you manage change as a librarian? Perhaps your library recently launched a change initiative. Share your story with WebJunction, just email content@webjunction.org.
