http://www.trainingmagnetwork.com/events/439
Have you ever had an important meeting with your boss and diligently took notes as if you’re transcribing the entire conversation? Have you ever anticipated taking notes at a conference keynote session because you were looking forward to the person speaking? How often do you go back and read your own notes, though? Chances are we don't revisit our notes very often. Why do we take notes if we don’t intend to do anything with them? Our intentions and our motivation are there, but most often we end up looking hazily at our own handwriting trying to decipher a note.

For today’s knowledge workers, constant learning is more valuable than mastery. Leadership expert Liz Wiseman argues that the most successful rookies are hunter-gatherers — alert and seeking, cautious but quick like firewalkers, and hungry and relentless like pioneers.

Librarians in Washington State are taking a leadership role in college-wide efforts to adopt alternatives to textbooks by engaging in a Library Services Technology Act (LSTA) Grant administered by the Washington State Library/Office of the Secretary of State. In the effort to achieve open education leadership, West and colleagues have created a course for librarians on how to serve open education needs. The webcast will address the open education skills that librarians are developing in order to better serve the open education needs of our institutions.

Leadership Guidelines for New Managers
First-time managers often find difficulties in making the transition from being competent contributors to inspired leaders. They're good at what they do and have enjoyed a sense of accomplishment. Now, they must learn to get work done through others. Being self-starters, they may not know how to "start" someone else.
In this 45-minute informational webinar (followed by a 15-minute Q&A), Cynthia Clay will describe five Leadership Guidelines that can support a new manager in making a successful transition to their leadership role.

Jun'15 Promoting the Depository Collection While Supporting Research Trips to the National Archives (FDLP)
June 4, 2015 / 2:00 p.m. (Eastern)
http://www.fdlp.gov/about-the-fdlp/fdlp-events-calendar
Researchers in many disciplines know that the National Archives’ collections are valuable sources for a variety of domestic and international topics. However, they aren't always aware of what materials are collected by the National Archives, nor do they realize that some materials they seek might be found in a depository library’s collection. This webinar highlights efforts at the Yale University Library to assist researchers in planning trips to National Archives facilities in Washington, D.C. We have found that in workshops and individual consultations related to NARA research, we can promote the depository collection and the ways in which initial research with local materials will help researchers arrive at NARA prepared and confident that their time will be well-spent. Participants in this webinar will learn about these instruction and outreach strategies and explore how the interplay of depository documents and NARA records can enhance researchers’ understanding of Government information.

Researchers in many disciplines know that the National Archives’ collections are valuable sources for a variety of domestic and international topics. However, they aren't always aware of what materials are collected by the National Archives, nor do they realize that some materials they seek might be found in a depository library’s collection. This webinar highlights efforts at the Yale University Library to assist researchers in planning trips to National Archives facilities in Washington, D.C.

Aug'15: People: Difficult or Different? (Effectiveness Institute)
Friday, Aug 21, 2015 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM Pacific
http://www.effectivenessinstitute.com/index.php?option=com_dtregister&Itemid=54
Why are some clients or co-workers so frustrating to work with? Or more importantly, why would anyone think of YOU as a difficult person?
For example, isn’t it irritating when the person across the desk or on the phone can’t seem to ever make a decision… or makes a snap decision only to change it a day later?
In this highly interactive and engaging presentation, you will discover why “different” does not have to mean “difficult.” Then you will learn the magic of making slight adjustments in your awareness and behavior that will have a significant impact on your ability to “click” with customers and co-workers.
You will laugh as you identify your behavior style, as well as those with whom you work. While you laugh, you will also learn that people are different and that “intent” doesn’t always equal “impact.” In short, you will realize how to make work… less work!

Friday, July 10 / 11am-12pm Pacific
http://www.effectivenessinstitute.com/index.php?option=com_dtregister&Itemid=54
Do you shy away from conflict? In organizations across the world conflict is avoided. Expectations go unmet, values are violated, and overall underperformance exists because people do not know how to effectively resolve issues without resorting to the use of power.
This one hour session introduces you to concepts that enable you to begin to “integrate conflict” - to walk into it and effectively handle it - rather than avoid it.

May'15: Library Linked Data in the Cloud (OCLC)
Thursday, 21 May from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT
http://www.oclc.org/research/news/2015/05-04.html
Librarians, archivists, computer scientists, and other professionals interested in modeling bibliographic descriptions as linked data are invited to attend this webinar in which the authors will describe the conceptual and technical challenges involved in publishing linked data derived from traditional library metadata. This transformation is urgent because it is now common knowledge that most searches for information start not in the library, nor even in a Web-accessible library catalog, but elsewhere on the Internet. Modeling data in a form that the broader Web understands may help keep libraries relevant in the Digital Information Age.
Join us to gain more insights into linked data from the authors, including what lessons they learned about linked data as they wrote the book, and how these lessons helped them to identify and prioritize the next steps for library linked data.

-there is a technology-enabled shift in research and evaluation focus from the world of the library to the information world of potential library users;
-there is growing experience across countries of conducting library evaluation that goes beyond outputs to measure impact;
-there is a recognition that sustaining impact evaluation efforts is a core element in ensuring sustainability of libraries;
-there are early signs of movement towards more ethical evaluation; and,
-as library services become more innovative the limitations of simple evaluation models are beginning to show.

May'15 RDA serials cataloging (NISO/NASIG Joint Webinar)
Date: May 20, 2015
Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. (Eastern Time)
Event webpage: http://www.niso.org/news/events/2015/webinars/nasig_rda/
Resource Description and Access (RDA) is a standard for descriptive cataloging, replacing AACR2, that provides instructions and guidelines on formulating bibliographic data in a linked data environment. Cataloging of special materials, such as reproductions, microforms, rare materials, etc. has always had unique requirements, which is also true when using RDA for serials cataloging. Catalogers dealing with these special materials are experimenting with using RDA to meet the needs of their users and staff to effectively describe these resources.
Presenters during this joint NISO/NASIG Webinar will explore the topic of specialized RDA cataloging, the different formats requiring an extra level of data for cataloging, and share experiences with converting specialized collections into RDA.

At the ACRL 2015 Conference in Portland, we began a discussion of the future role of ACRL in sponsoring, promoting, and disseminating research in academic librarianship in an era when the platforms for each are becoming increasingly diverse. What is the role of the Association, nationally and locally? How can the Association collaborate with other sponsors of relevant research, including OCLC or JISC? How can the Association collaborate with LIS schools or local libraries to ensure that research skills are a vibrant part of pre-professional and continuing professional education programs? What roles in supporting your research should ACRL be playing that it is not? Using these ideas posed at Portland as a starting point, you’ll have a chance to engage the conference panelists in a wide-ranging discussion of what we need from our Association if it is to remain central to our work as researchers and evidence-informed practitioners.
