Webcasts for Group Viewings

Mid-America Library Alliance (MALA) now offers Webcasts for Group Viewings for Staff Meetings and Staff Development Days

Need a guest speaker for your staff meetings or staff development days? We have the answer. The Mid-America Library Alliance now offers group viewings for our webcasts for one flat fee. You pick the date, you pick the time and the webcast will be available for you to show to your group. We still offer individual registration for our webcasts. You can find links for those on our website under MALA Webcasts.

These webcasts are pre-recorded. The link and password will be sent via email the day of the scheduled webcast. When registering, please enter the name and email address of the person who will log the group in to view the webcast.  You will also receive a handout via email a couple of days prior to the webcast date you have chosen.
