Attendees will leave the workshop with improved business research skills, ideas on new ways to drill for information, and a collection of links to the best business resources on the Web. The trend on Web sites is towards interactivity, discussion, and community. This half day workshop covers a range of options for adding these elements to your Web site. Learn how to use and rename guest book scripts and pages to add a live library feedback section. Bulletin board and discussion forum options can create a discussion space for library users, staff, friends, or any other group.
Email lists are available for free or fee and can be run locally or from a remote host.
Explore the different options available and some of the issues involved with operating and maintaining community and discussion elements on Web sites.
