Webjunction

WebJunction

Webjunction [1] is an online portal for Library and Information professionals to share knowledge. Webjunction offers online content to libraries such as courses from basic computer skills to advanced web design and from using the Internet to library management skills. Additionally, in the All Aboard discussion groups, library staff can go online to communicate and share ideas with other libraries around the world. WebJunction also administers grant projects for state libraries that are designed to equip library staff with tools to help serve their communities. The Arizona State Library has participated in three Webjunction projects in the past year, Rural Library Sustainability, Spanish Language Outreach and Government information in the 21st Century. Currently there are 14 Community Partner relationships with State Library Agencies in Alabama, Arizona [2], Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Maine, Minnesota, Vermont, and Washington. Each Community Partner has their own customized version of WebJunction, and you can read more about the program by clicking on the community partner link on the WebJunction homepage. --Mayu 18:45, 9 September 2007 (PDT)
