Virtual Tech Summit: From Systems to Services |
1. District Workshop Registration - Virtual Tech Summit: Power to the Patron, From Systems to Services
What: Virtual Tech Summit: Power to the Patron, From Systems to Services Library Journal presents our first virtual technology summit, Power to the Patron: From Systems to Services. This full-day event will examine the technologies that empower users on the front end (what they see) and the behind-the-scenes systems that make such self-service and digital delivery possible. The day will offer a keynote presentation and panels covering what people are using, what they want, and how the self-service option helps people discover their place in the library or simplifies the library/user connection.
When: Thursday Dec. 8, 10am - 6pm EDT. The room will be open at 10a.m. for orientation, setup and local discussion. 11a.m. is the first official "presentation" of the day. Breaks occur throughout the day and discussions will be held before and after speakers/presenters. Feel free to drop in for any part you can attend that interests you for the future of your library.
