Please pardon the cross-posting.

Hi Folks,

I wanted to pass along an opportunity for library staff to learn more about the Gale databases designed for K-12 users that your students, staff, and/or patrons have access to. The 2-hour in-person training sessions are free, but you must register by 10/9 and be able to attend in Portland or Tillamook. The registration link and additional information are in the email below.

Thanks,
Jen
