This includes customers from all types of colleges and universities, public libraries of all sizes, corporations, and public agencies. Our institutional customers have included the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency, the Office of the White House, the Max Planck Institute in Luxembourg, the US National Agriculture Library, the Canadian Agriculture Library, the Smithsonian Institution, the RAND Corporation, and OCLC, as well as large groups from Stanford, Harvard, and the Library of Congress. While academic programs focus on conceptual understanding of foundations, we focus primarily on the kinds of skills that library schools expect librarians to learn on-the-job, but which usually turn out to require additional study. These workshops earn Continuing Education Units, and are intended as professional development activities. Workshops are taught asynchronously, so you can participate as your own schedule allows.
