Join us February 11, 2016, for the next Amigos Online Conference, "Going Out of Bounds with Reference Services." During this conference, we will be hearing from librarians across the country regarding innovative reference outreach, programming and integration with other departments in the library.
Reference librarianship has transformed from standard "behind-the-desk" reference to roving reference, to virtual reference, and finally beyond the library walls. As part of this evolution, libraries have begun integrating reference services into other library and community services, bringing reference services directly to the need. Whether through innovative programming, bringing librarians out of the library, or incorporating librarians from all specialties into library work, libraries have sought to embed reference into their communities.
This is your last chance to register for the November 16 online conference, "E-books in Libraries: An Update." Remember, as a benefit of membership, Amigos members always attend our online conferences free of charge.
You won’t want to miss Lindsay Barnett’s morning session, "Using Administrative Metadata to Organize and Maintain Ebook Collections." Barnett will discuss the role of administrative metadata in organizing and maintaining multiple e-book collections, and explain why metadata should be a focus of the ongoing discussion of the use of e-books in libraries.
