Keeping Up with the Speed of Change


Description:

The World Wide Web is increasing logarithmically and information flows in never ending streams.  Librarians, Archivists and Information Specialists try to keep up with it all.  Even professionals who specialize in specific fields of knowledge have trouble keeping up.  This presentation will provide techniques for keeping up with professional literature, new websites and searching strategies, and great reference resources that have put it all together for you.  Learn techniques for sampling the stream of never-ending information.  Discover the advantages of networking and brainstorming with colleagues to stimulate awareness of new data sources, both print and online.  Understand the difference between ‘time management’ and ‘multi-tasking’.  At the end, we will discuss the need to take time for the fun stuff in life to recharge your intellectual curiosity so you are ready to jump back in the stream of things

Goals:

  • Taming the multi-tasking monster

  • Learn where to look to keep current in the field of Information
  • Keep in touch with colleagues and associates
  • Useful networking techniques
 
 

Audience: 

Any library staff member who works with the public, including administrators and web developers.
