Registration is now open for Wisconsin Trustee Training Week on August 18-21. Sponsored by all 15 public library systems, the annual Trustee Training Week offers a one-hour webinar each day of the week on a topic of interest to public library trustees and administrators.
All webinars begin at 12 p.m. The line-up of presentations offered this year includes:
-
Monday, August 18: Wisconsin Library Law
-
Tuesday, August 19: Trustee 101: An Introduction to Being a Wisconsin Public Library Trustee
-
Wednesday, August 20: Basics of an Efficient, Effective Board Meeting
-
Thursday, August 21: Library Advocacy and Storymaking: the Hero’s Journey from Community to Page (and Beyond)
“This year’s Trustee Training Week includes some refreshers on organizational basics, as well as a focus on library advocacy,” said Wisconsin Trustee Training Week Coordinator Jean Anderson. “We decided to skip the Friday webinar this year because in the past, attendance on this day has been very low,” she said. “We feel confident that the four webinars provided will be strong and are a nice range of topics.”
The webinars will be recorded and archived for later viewing.
