Do you want to get a better handle on taming the technological beast in your library? This lightning-paced interactive session offers a brief preview of the new bookManaging Library Technology: A LITA Guideand offers you a chance to kick-start a technology plan for your library. The book is based on Carson Block’s ALA-APA CPLA class, Management of Technology, and features ideas and practices that have been field-tested for years, offering a solid approach to understanding and managing the things that remain constant in an ever-changing world. While a true technology plan takes more than 90 minutes to create, this session helps you get off the dime. Attendees are given a worksheet to guide table conversations in key areas of technology planning, as well as opportunities to share their ideas with each other.
