As the Assistant Director for Technology and Training, I manage two of the system's seven branches - the Morrow and Lovejoy locations. I am also responsible for the marketing, website, e-newsletter and social media for the entire library system. I also facilitate classes on a variety of topics including tech and web resources, MS Office Suite basics, 3D printing and design and tools for small business and entrepreneurs as seen in the videos below.
I am in charge of planning and facilitating Staff Development Day training sessions for the whole system. Six months out of the year, we gather as a whole staff for training and information sessions. Each SDD has a team building exercise, practical skills lesson and an opportunity for staff to ask questions anonymously through a system called "Digital Parking Lot". It's an updated version of an activity from my School/Teacher Librarian days where students could ask questions without the fear of being ridiculed by their classmates. I had a gut feeling that this same activity could be beneficial during SDD sessions so I tried and it has become a staple and a much anticipated part of our day. |
