As a special treat, lunch will include a fashion show of Librarians Over the Millennium, just in case you had doubts that librarians are always on the cutting edge of fashion. The keynote speaker will be Candace Vigil of Color Code Communications, Inc., who will share the Hartman Color Code Concepts with the diners. This database which the State Library has contracted to offer to all public, academic, and public high school libraries via the Internet contains indexes and abstracts to over 2,200 periodicals. This year, another round of training will give you the chance to find out what you have been missing, learn more about using Magazines Online, or answer those questions you have after a year of experience with the database. The State Library is sponsoring six 2-hour training sessions the week of October 4.
Space is limited, so register as soon as possible.
Upcoming training workshops. These classes offer 1.0 Continuing Education Unit. Please remember to fill out and return the Public School Library Survey recently distributed to school libraries by the New Mexico Task Force on School Libraries. It is very important to receive as large a sample from schools as possible. Results will help to formulate policy to address the large issue of better education in New Mexico.
