About the Event

This is one of many library continuing education meetings happening across Oregon in the spring of 2010.  The purpose of the meeting is to hear from Library personnel about their continuing education needs.  This input is very important because it will help shape the design of a sustainable model for continuing education in Oregon.  All library personnel are invited.  The geographic area for this meeting includes Coos and Curry Counties.  

An e-survey will also be administered throughout the state in the summer.  "The study is expected to document continuing education needs and to analyze the feasibility of a sustainable CE delivery model in Oregon.  The project report is expected to be complete and delivered to the client (Portland Community College Library) in late summer."

This project is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the federal Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA).  A grant to Portland Community College by the Oregon State Library which administers LSTA funds in Oregon, made this project possible.
