[OPLINLIST] When do you get to practice?

[SWON Info]

Hearing a talk about social media or watching an online tutorial can be 
helpful, but nothing takes the place of trying something out yourself. 
That’s what SWON’s Level-Up Labs offer: useful information, and time and 
the tools to put it into practice.

There’s also time to ask questions. Judging from the response we’ve had, 
that’s one of the most useful parts of the Lab. Whether it’s a technical 
solution, an explanation, a quick walkthrough, or feedback from others 
in the room, you can get the help you’re looking for.

Our upcoming Level-Up Lab schedule includes sessions for LinkedIn, 
Evernote, LibGuides, and Publisher. And others like Powerpoint and Basic 
HTML are in the wings, waiting to be requested and put on the schedule. 
You can see the full list of scheduled Level-Up Labs here:

If you can’t make these dates, why not invite Nathan out to hold a 
1-hour Lab at your location? I don’t teach all the Labs, but if there 
are skills you’d like to improve, tell me what you’d like to work on and 
I’ll see if it’s something I know enough or can learn enough about to 
teach. You can contact me at nathan at swonlibraries.org 
<mailto:nathan at swonlibraries.org>.


    The next Level-Up Lab: LinkedIn

Come to SWON’s office in Blue Ash on September 12th, from 10 a.m. to 
noon, to take your LinkedIn profile to the next level. Melanie will help 
you complete your profile (and tell you why it’s worth completing) and 
help you make progress using LinkedIn’s other features. Attendance is 
free for Supporting Members, so click here to register:
