[mailto:pbluh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] ALCTS Announces first E-Forum of 2009 Providing Professional Development Opportunities for
Staff while Coping with Shrinking Resources When library budgets shrink, often one of the first
areas to be cut is the fund that supports travel and professional
development for library staff. What can
you do to continue to support your staff in times of budget cuts? How do you
keep up morale when furloughs or layoffs are on the horizon? Share your ideas
and thoughts on how to help staff get the professional development they desire? Find out how others are
coping. It is not
necessary to belong to ALCTS to participate in the discussion, however, a login
and password are required. To obtain a login and password and/or to register,

We hope you will join us for
this moderated discussion beginning Wednesday, January 14, 2009 at 10am EST.
The discussion will conclude on Friday, January 16 at 8pm EST. Pamela Bluh ******************************************* |
