[Andrea Adkins]

The Ohio Library Council and the Reference & Information Services Division are sponsoring “ eGads! eGov! Helping Libraries Navigate Online Government Resources ” on Tuesday, October 7 from 10:00am-6:00pm. 

As more and more government services and programs move to online access, more patrons are turning to their libraries for help navigating this eGovernment environment. Workshop participants will learn about frontline, best practices for helping patrons with eGovernment websites along with legal issues to consider. Presenters from the Ohio Department of Veterans Services, Social Security Administration, and Ohio Department of Job and Family Services will discuss government programs and services and the best practices for accessing these programs and services. A representative from the American Library Association will give an overview of the ALA eGov Toolkit. Participants should gain knowledge and practical solutions that will help them and their patrons navigate the eGov environment. 

Participants will come away with great information to help their patrons in the ever-growing world of eGovernment resources.
