Join the Conversation
April 14, 2008

An online discussion forum is a great medium for holding conversations amongst busy, geographically dispersed people. At WebJunction, the Discussion Boards are the place where your fellow library professionals deliberate all matters concerning our work, from technology to patron services. Since we all face similar problems, the next step is to share solutions! Some interesting topics to explore:

• Test your patron services programming ideas or get inspired in The Idea Exchange.
• Seeking employment in the library field comes with unique challenges. If you're happily settled, share any tips and tricks to landing a fulfilling position in Job Searching.
• Disaster doesn't just happen to facilities. Check out the various Networking & Security threads for managing and protecting your library's networks.
• Some forum questions become the Question of the Week.

Participating in a conversation with like-minded souls is heartening, and even if they're not like-minded, thrashing out differences is an elevating learning experience. Think about taking the next step and join the conversation today!
