[Libs-Or] Gale's National Training Calendar

[Jennifer Maurer]

Hi,

Please pardon the cross-posting.

I keep forgetting that Gale's training calendar is a secure site so linking to it from outside of a Gale website will not work.

You can access the calendar on either Gale support site for Oregon libraries.
Public, Tribal, & K12 libraries: www.galesupport.com/oregon<http://www.galesupport.com/oregon>
Click on Training Opportunities (in blue toolbar at the top or in third Gale bubble in column on the right)
Click on Complete Webinar Schedule

--OR--

Academic libraries: www.galesupport.com/oregonacad<http://www.galesupport.com/oregonacad>
Click on Training Opportunities (in sixth bubble in column on the right)
Click on Complete Webinar Schedule

Or, go to Gale's national support page.
            http://support.gale.com/gale/index.html
            Click on Training Calendar (2nd box in center column, orange bubble)

Thanks,
Jen

Subject: [Libs-Or] Webinars for Opposing Viewpoints

Hi,

Please pardon the cross-posting.

We have some updated information about the Opposing Viewpoints (OVRC) webinars.  Because the date for transitioning OVRC and select other Resource Center databases, like SRC Gold, to the new interface has been moved from June to August, we have canceled the previously mentioned June trainings.  This is the schedule for the Oregon webinars:

Date

Times

Tuesday, August 24th

8:30 - 9:30 am PST
3:30 - 4:30 pm PST

Thursday, August 26th

12:30 - 1:30 pm PST
3:30 - 4:30 pm PST

September

Trainer not available

Tuesday, October 12th

12:30 - 1:30 pm PST
3:30 - 4:30 pm PST

Wednesday, October 13th

8:30 - 9:30 am PST
3:30 - 4:30 pm PST


One of the August webinars will be recorded and will be available for viewing soon afterwards.

As we near the webinar dates, we'll send access information.  You will need a phone (landline or cellular) and a computer with an Internet connection.  Ideally, you will have a quiet space for participating as lots of background noise makes it difficult for others to hear.

Also, remember that Gale offers webinars on a variety of topics every month.  You can check their national training calendar for OVRC webinars.  June OVRC webinars will offer a preview of the new interface, relying primarily on screenshots.  As we get closer to the August transition date, Gale will incorporate more of the actual interface into their national webinars.  Recall that you'll need to convert listed times to Pacific Standard Time and that the national webinars are free but you have to register for them ahead of time.  https://www.yourconferencecenter.com/CMS/eventcalendar.aspx?beid=100416

Finally, you can also view other OVRC training and promotional materials.  The last URL will likely be the most helpful for you right now.
            Product site for current interface: http://www.gale.cengage.com/OpposingViewpoints/
            Product site for new interface:  http://www.gale.cengage.com/CriticalThinking/
            Preview site: http://www.gale.cengage.com/NewRCs/

If the table with the Oregon webinar dates did not come through on your email, let me know.

Thanks,
Jen
