"Running a Virtual Meeting" Presented by Carolyn Caywood and Nicole
McGee from the Virginia Beach Public Library
<http://www.vbgov.com/vgn.aspx?dept_list=0b81fd67f3ad9010VgnVCM100000870
b640aRCRD&x=8&y=9>  

As the cost of gas rises and travel time eats into our workdays, and as
new technology opens new possibilities for meeting at a distance,
librarians are learning how to lead and facilitate meetings that are not
face-to-face. Have these new meeting technologies gotten ahead of the
human factors? What still works? What needs to be reinvented? What's
best avoided? Carolyn Caywood and Nicole McGee will present and
facilitate the discussion.
