<p><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Are you crunched for time? Have to-do lists on Post Its all around your desk? Have more than one planner or calendar - some digital, some physical? </span></p>
<div><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;">I used to get overwhelmed by the amount of calendars and notes I was keeping - one for work, one for home, and multiple to-do lists everywhere. There were wall calendars I never used, desk calendars with just work events, and a personal calendar with appointments and social events. It was always </span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;">difficult to keep track of everything I needed to do when it was so unorganized and decentralized</span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small; background-color: #ffffff;">. Luckily,</span><font color="#333333" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif" size="2"> I found bullet journaling. You, too, may have seen the concept mentioned online somewhere, maybe Facebook or Pinterest, and wondered what it was and if it could help you or your patrons. A <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=3274258&ymlink=217340906&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fbulletjournal%2Ecom%2F">Bullet Journa</a>l is a customizable and forgiving organization system that can be your to-do list, sketchbook, notebook, and diary, but most likely, it will be all of the above. </font></div>
<p><font color="#333333" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif" size="2">If you've researched Bullet Journaling before, you may have become overwhelmed by the intricate and artistic layouts shared via Instagram and Pinterest as well as the time it must take to start a journal. I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be that complicated or time consuming! </font><span style="color: #333333; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Personally, I use my bullet journal as a calendar, planner, to-do list, and diary, as well as a habit, activity, and mood tracker. I do minimal decorating (with washi tape and colored pens) and I'm not a very great artist! Your own journal can be as simple or complex as you want to make it - from a single black pen on paper, to color-coding and drawing, or even using stencils for layouts. There are suggested basic sections that can go into each Bullet Journal, but nothing is required. This is a flexible system that you can make work for YOU! </span><br />

<br />
This live webinar uses a Flipped Classroom approach and will include brief summaries of key findings designed to be included in the report. There will also be plenty of time for participants to compare their own workplace-based observations and develop rudimentary action plans for using those findings to the benefit of those they serve.<br />
<br />
Participants, by the time they leave the session, will:<br />
Be able to demonstrate familiarity with at least three tech trends, three tech challenges, and three critically important technologies<br />
Identify at least three ways that colleagues in libraries are using the technologies under discussion<br />
Have at least two resources they can explore to increase their knowledge of tech trends and challenges<br />
<br />
Please note: Although the information collected for the Horizon Report focuses specifically on higher education, the discussion will take a more inclusive view to apply the findings to public and other libraries.</font></span></p>
