Tech Talk with Michael Sauers: Working with Wikipedia (Nebraska Library Commission)
http://nlc.nebraska.gov/scripts/calendar/eventshow.asp?ProgID=12285
Next to Google, Wikipedia is the major source of information used by people today. But libraries also own much content that isn’t available on Wikipedia, so how should we make sure users don’t stop there? In this session, Aaron Tay, Senior Librarian & eServices Facilitator at National University of Singapore, will cover ideas on how to link resources from Wikipedia to library resources using various tools including John Mark Ockerbloom’s Forward to Libraries service. In the opposite direction, libraries can also move in and use Wikipedia entries to enhance findability of their collections. Wednesday, June 12

Uncovering Free and Low Cost Legal Resources (Wyoming State Law Library)
https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/908186494

We will review a variety of electronic resources including university and nonprofit organization sites, government sites, and more. As with any resource, we will discover that one legal resource is more valuable than another for particular types of research. Wednesday, June 12

Support Patron Learning in Small Spaces with Small Budgets (WebJunction)
https://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/Support_Patron_Learning_in_Small_Spaces_with_Small_Budgets.html
In small communities, libraries can often be the only provider of free public access to technology and the internet. And as more people turn to their library to learn technology skills, even the tiniest of libraries are faced with the challenge of providing training to patrons with limited staff, resources, and space. Learn from small and rural libraries who are making training a reality for their patrons, using volunteers, leveraging partnerships and integrating learning into everyday interactions. Whether the technology training you do (or want to do) is one-to-one, on-the-fly or a more formal program, this session will include tips and suggestions for improving the effectiveness of the training you provide. Wednesday, June 12
2:30-3:30 pm (Eastern)

Data-Driven Libraries Part 2: Understanding Customers Through Segmentation Analytics (Library Journal)
http://lj.libraryjournal.com/category/webcasts/
Customer segmentation studies and data analytics combines demographic data with lifestyle information to help public libraries better understand who their customers are and what services best meet the community’s need, whether school-aged children or empty-nester couples. This type of GIS-based market segmentation can also help inform strategies around such initiatives as a levy ballot and also eliminate inefficient marketing efforts. Wednesday, June 12

Community Led Library Service Development (InfoPeople)
http://infopeople.org/training/view/webinar
Instead of adding projects or tasks to library staff in an effort to promote library services, the community-led approach establishes the library staff as trained listeners and brokers of awareness to provide service development for both marginalized and comfortable community sectors. The community-led approach helps the library to identify which traditional library roles are now redundant, and thus of little worth to the community, allowing both professional library staff and support staff to concentrate on those services that are meaningful to the public. Community-led service development allows both the community and its library staff to grow, become engaged in the civic sphere they share and find the best venues for individuals to pursue their aspirations for their primary needs of health and welfare, as well as life-long learning and the support of personal values.

Public Libraries: Become a Community Publishing Portal (PLA)
http://www.ala.org/pla/onlinelearning/webinars/publishingportal
Last year Los Gatos (Calif.) Library began a partnership with e-book self-publishing company Smashwords to offer a three-part series of e-book self-publishing seminars. This partnership has grown to include a co-branded publishing portal managed by Smashwords. Linked from the library website, the portal enables local authors to publish and distribute e-books at no cost and allows them to “Publish to the Library” if the library chooses to purchase their work. Find out how Los Gatos Library developed this partnership and how your library can easily do the same. Wednesday, June 19

Data-Driven Libraries Part 3: Decoding Data to Plan for the Future (Library Journal)
http://lj.libraryjournal.com/category/webcasts/
Data-driven decision making is creating large pools of data around which public libraries are trying to define everything from overarching strategies to granular collection development strategies. Although the analysis of this data is often left to third-parties, some libraries are taking the step of hiring their own data analysts to help administrators decide what the data means, why it matters, and how best to present it to other stakeholders.
