Feeling confounded by business reference questions in your day-to-day
work?

Looking to expand your knowledge to get ahead, or get started in your
reference career?

 

We can help!

 

Get down to the basics of business concepts by attending "Mastering
Business Acumen (MBA) in a Day", a workshop sponsored by the Reference
and User Services Association (RUSA) at ALA's 2009 Annual Conference.
Public, academic and special librarians as well as library school
students who are new to business reference or who want to improve their
understanding of basic business concepts will benefit from this event.

 

Subjects and speakers include:

Management: Elisabeth Leonard, consultant, Library Solutions

Finance: Chris LeBeau, business reference librarian, University of
Missouri, Kansas City and clinical instructor, School of Information
Science and Learning Technologies

Accounting: Susan Klopper, executive director, Goizueta Business
Library, Emory University

Marketing: Gary White, head, Schreyer Business Library, Penn State

 

The workshop will be held Friday, July 10, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.
This is a ticketed event-you do not have to attend the ALA Annual
Conference to participate, but you do need to register.
