Libraries = Learning Organizations

Statewide Online Conference for Idaho Library Staff

Thursday, May 14 from 9:00 AM to 12 Noon  MDT

How do libraries stay lively and nimble in times of constant change?  Transitioning the library into a learning organization can help your team to thrive in this environment.  A learning organization is…”characterized by a flat structure and customer-focused teams ... acquiring knowledge and innovating quickly to survive and thrive in a rapidly changing environment."

 Breakout session topics include:

  • Do You Want More Rewards? presented by Dr. Richard Wilson, Associate State Librarian, Idaho Commission for Libraries
  • Using Communities of Practice presented by the University of Idaho Library Team

Who should attend?  Library directors, staff, trustees and volunteers!  Everyone is involved in making a learning organization.  Join the exploration of the concept of Libraries = Learning Organizations and learn how you might use various tools to enhance your library action team! 

A grant funded by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services under a provision of the Library Services and Technology Act has enabled ICFL to provide a microphone headset for each public library in Idaho participating in a Wimba training session.  When registering please indicate if your library has not yet received a microphone headset.
