An introductory course on how to make records for all kinds of
information-bearing materials for inclusion in catalogues and databases.
9th: The Invisible Web: Where Search Engines Fear to Go
(www.aslib.com/training/6/05.html)
The invisible web gives information professionals a great opportunity to
demonstrate that they can add value to an organisation by developing an
expert knowledge of the wide range of web resources that Internet searchers
may well miss. This course will give you an overview of what the invisible
web is and how you can use it.
14th: British Official Publications (www.aslib.com/training/1/02.html)
What exactly is a white paper? How is draft legislation examined and
passed into law?
What are statutory instruments and how are they examined? What is the
difference between parliament and government? If your organisation needs to
keep abreast of current developments in parliament and government, then
this course is for you.
15th: Designing Training and Coaching Sessions NEW
(www.aslib.com/training/2/02.html)
This programme will enable you to design effective training and coaching
sessions. You will find out about the training cycle and this is used as a
framework for the development of effective training in information and
library services.
16th: Running Training and Coaching Sessions NEW
(www.aslib.com/training/2/11.html)
This programme will enable you to deliver and evaluate effective training
and coaching sessions. You will briefly explore the practical aspects of
implementing training and coaching sessions e.g. financial side of
training, selecting a trainer, health and safety. You will explore working
in one-to-one and small group situations using the principles of coaching
and training. You will also consider how to effectively run training
sessions using ICT.
17th : Evaluating Digital Information (www.aslib.com/training/4/13.html)
The ability to acquire external information appropriate to your
organisation's needs is a skill that no enterprise can afford to be
without. The competitiveness of business and the fast pace of change have
increased the need for rapid access to high quality information. The ease
of access to the Internet and the exponential growth of information
available have increased the amount of choice. If you are involved with the
purchase of information products, this course is essential.
18th: Classification Practice (www.aslib.com/training/4/04.html)
If you have some experience of subject indexing, but need guidance or
practice or want to refresh knowledge gained some time ago, this course
will give you the skills needed. Participants are invited to bring typical
material from their collections to form a group of items that can be
considered in the practical sessions. Where an in-house scheme is used, it
may be appropriate to bring a copy of the scheme to the course. Major
themes throughout the course are your users, your collection and tailoring
the approach to meet their needs.
For courses taking place after 18th February, please visit the Aslib web
site: www.aslib.com/training.
If you have any enquiries about these or future events please do not
hesitate to contact me.
