Wednesday, December 2, 2009 at noon Eastern Time, 11:00 a.m. Central, 10:00 Mountain, 9:00 Pacific, and 5 p.m. GMT:
"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=0b81fd67f3ad9010VgnVCM100000870b640aRCRD&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.

Host: Virginia Beach Public Library<http://www.vbgov.com/vgn.aspx?dept_list=0b81fd67f3ad9010VgnVCM100000870b640aRCRD&x=8&y=9>

Location: OPAL Auditorium<http://www.conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs1641902f62b4>
