Get ready to embark on a learning adventure! This session will provide a manageable approach for library staff looking for ways to learn on their own or together with others. We’ll take you on a tour of WebJunction.org and supply you with practical tools and resources to develop and implement a learning plan, which will equip you with the skills needed to navigate through the ever-changing library landscape. You’ll also learn how to access WebJunction’s free, online courses developed by librarians and library staff from around the country. We look forward to sharing all that WebJunction has to offer!
