Wed, May 29, 2024 / 2:00pm to 4:00pm

Note that these sessions were created for the five 2024 new I-Share libraries, so their staff have had the first chance to register. As such, I will try to update the event description with “waitlist only” when registration is reached for a particular session of a lesson.

To Register: Use the "Register" tab at the top of this page.

The same content is presented 4 times. You do not need to register for more than one session, unless you want to repeat the training.
