Basic Technology Adoption Strategies for Library WorkersA great program offered by the College of DuPage today. If you missed the program you can request the link to the recording or the DVD or videotape.
Steven Bell shared ideas for gaining control over library technology with ways to identify, adopt and leverage the technologies that make sense for staff and that create a better experience for library users. He talked about how having the right attitude can help staff develop a strategy for keeping pace with technology. His Five Step Plan for Technology Adoption works right into NEFLIN's plan to launch the 23 Things @ NEFLIN program in January.
- Encourage Play and Experimentation
- Identify Compassionate Pioneers
- We're looking for pioneers who are interested in sharing their knowledge. Contact Stephanie.
- Adopt Reverse Mentoring
- Your colleagues will be looking for mentors as they begin the 23 Things program. Be available.
- Get Blended
- Create a Safe Environment for Change
- We hope that all our members will join us in January for this safe opportunity to learn about new technologies and how they can be implemented in your library.
The College of DuPage programs are made available to all Florida library staff by an LSTA grant from the State Library & Archives. The next program is Information Literacy for Life on Friday, November 21, 2008 at noon.
