SURVEY COMMENTS
“Thank you very much Beckie, Gail and OPL for having this training made available to us all. Definitely we need to know this.”
“A very good introductory session. Took the "fear" out of what these things actually are and what they do.”
“Thanks Beckie. I think I'm in a new world!”
“All levels of library staff should receive this training so no one gets left behind”
“Thanks again for this training. I don't feel like a dinosaur.”
“Agree that OPL staff must keep current and savvy especially since most of our customers already are aware and/or use blogs, etc.”
