October Free Webinars, 2011



This is just a taste of what I am currently working on, free webinars and their links. I just want to share two links for now, one is taking place on Monday, October 10 for those searching for library jobs in this hard job market.

From the ALA Edition Blog:
A Free Webinar for Library Job Hunters-from ALA Editions Blog Jeannette Woodward, author of our special report A Librarian’s Guide to an Uncertain Job Market will host the webinar “Tactics for Library Job Hunting in a Tough Market” on October 20, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

A seasoned administrator with experience in both academic and public libraries, Woodward will focus on the application package, the interviewing process, and the distinguishing features of how libraries recruit. She will address concerns of librarians unemployed or currently working, new or experienced, including reading between the lines of job postings, contents of a strong cover letter, tailoring the resume to fit your unique strengths, and preparing for the telephone interviews and panels.

The second is a list of webinars that are taking place this month, click below for a full listing.

Plan to attend these free webinars; all you need is your computer & speakers or headphones. Each one can be counted as a Category B continuing education activity towards renewing librarian certification.”
