Emerging Technologies and Digital Communications 2019 - 2-Part Webinar (02/12 and 13/19)

IMPORTANT: This is a 2-part webinar that meets
Tuesday, February 12 AND Wednesday, February 13
from 10:00 - 11:30 AM ET.

You must attend both sessions.

This webinar covers several useful online tools to help modern libraries communicate. They're all free to use, they all help solve existing problems, and they're all available to use right away (rather than being some kind of 'future trend' which is still a couple of years off...)

Tools and concepts covered include marketing with video, online publishing platforms, augmented reality, mobile and apps, and geolocational platforms.

Learning outcomes:

Participants will know how to present information online in and engaging and useful way, which works with the library website but doesn't rely on it!
Participants will be able to generate ideas on how to use location-aware mobile technologies in their own institution
Participants will have several options for making effective videos about their services, with no need for cameras or expensive editing software
