With such an amazing program of speakers and topics lined up for the 2020 BC Library Conference, we knew we wanted to find a way for our presenters to still be able to share their work and their ideas. We are calling this virtual series: The Conversation Continues. It is our hope that by making these presentations available, we continue to contribute to the professional development opportunities for our library community, and the conversation does indeed continue. Thank you to all our presenters who were able to commit the time and effort to transforming their presentations into an online format.

 

If you would like to attend a “live”session live, please register at the link(s) below. We will continue to add recorded sessions here as they become available.

Upcoming Live Sessions

Public Computer Usage during COVID – Live Panel and Q&A

Date: July 8th, 2020 / 9:30 – 10:30 am

As public libraries in BC begin to open, one of the challenges we are facing is how to safely set up and navigate public computer spaces. 4 public libraries of different sizes will share their experiences – Powell River Public Library, West Vancouver Memorial Library, Burns Lake Library, and Vancouver Public Library. There will be time for live question and answer.

Presenters: Rebecca Burbank, Sarah Felkar, Monika Willner, Desiree Baron
