Subject: [ascla-l] ASCLA webinar series: registration now open

On behalf of the Association of Specialized and Cooperative Library Agencies (ASCLA), I am thrilled to announce that registration is now open for our upcoming webinar series we're calling the 2011 Virtual Convergence.
Throughout the day, from Jan. 18 through Jan. 21, we'll be offering webinars on a variety of topics relevant to all types of libraries and library job functions.

It's an opportunity to take a few hours at the start of the year to focus on you and the knowledge that will help you improve your job performance, enhance your library's service delivery or take your career in a whole new direction-all from the convenience of your computer at a very reasonable price.

Registration for a single session starts at $40 for ASCLA members. Save $$ when you sign up for more than one session.
More information is available at the ASCLA website: http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/ascla/asclaevents/virtualconvergence/virtualconverg.cfm
There's also information at the ASCLA blog: http://ascla.ala.org/blog/2010/11/vc2011-regopen/
