We work in an organization that values learning. Our resources support it, our public wants it, and we need it. We recently had a collective push, thanks to Tech Trek 2.0, to learn new skills and many of us took advantage of that. Mostly, we learn as individuals, when the subject and time come toghether. I recently came across a couple of items of interest in the learning line and wanted to share them.

Web Junction is hosting a webinar on Jan. 16, 2008, from 2--3 PM. Here's the description.
10 Ways to Make Your Library Great in 2008—via Web 2.0
As you think about your resolutions for the New Year, why not resolve to make your library a great educational asset within your community? This webinar will show you how to leverage social networking tools such as del.icio.us and Librarything to enable knowledge sharing and create collections of information around professional development. Ten key themes are presented to empower library staff as well as to increase a library's value within the community. Presented by guest speaker Ed Rossman, adult services librarian at Shaker Heights Public Library and author of Castles Against Ignorance: How to Make Libraries Great Educational Environments.

I know that being online at a certain time is hard. It's good to know that Web Junction does archive these sessions. To either sign up for this session or to view the archives, visit Web Junction.

There's more, in the archives of the SirsiDynix Institute. And, of course, the Casual conversations, hosted in the OPAL Auditorium. I think it would be useful to build of list of events like this--do you? Where should we post this? The Intranet?
