Hi,
 
Pardon the cross-postings.  
 
Ann Reed, the Federal Programs Coordinator at the State Library, and I will coordinate Gale training sessions over the next few months.  We are utilizing a combination approach.  You may attend a webinar, view an archived webinar, and/or attend various on-site trainings around the state. 
 
The first offering is a "Welcome to Gale" webinar.  Kurt Stovall, our Gale trainer, will introduce you to the databases in our statewide package and explain the very basics of the interface.  You have 9 options to join this Oregon-specific webinar in August. 
 
.        Dates:  August 18th, 21st, or 31st
.        Times:  9:00 to 10:00, 10:30 to 11:30, or 3:30 to 4:30 (Time options apply to all 3 dates above.)
.        Registration:  No need to register.  
.        Equipment:  You need a computer with an Internet connection and a phone.
.        Instructions:  See the attached instruction sheet.  If you did not receive the attachment, email me for a copy.  Be sure to read it before joining a session as it provides some good tips for making sure your computer is webinar-ready.
.        Identify Your Library:  When logging in to the webinar, please use the space marked Company to identify your library.
 
The Gale support site also has a calendar that lists regularly-scheduled free webinars which focus on specific databases.  Anyone from around the world may join these 1 hour sessions, but you must register ahead of time.  http://www.attendeenet.com/gale_training/ Click on a calendar entry to be linked to more information, including the registration page.  We'll send links to archived webinars soon.
 
On-site training times and locations still need to be confirmed, but these are the dates:
            September 9th, 10th, and 11th
            October 13th, 14th, and 27th
            November 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th 
 
Please help us spread the word about the August webinars.  
 
Thanks,
Jen
