In addition to the CRD workshops posted by Bonnie yesterday, here's a few more that will be of definite interest to PA academic librarians:

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 14
2 - 3:15 pm - Academic Librarianship by Design: The Blended Librarians' Perspective on Enhancing Library Instruction
John D. Shank, Instructional Design Librarians, Penn State, Berks Campus
Sponsor: Library Instruction Round Table

MONDAY, OCTOBER 15
9 - 10:15 am - Low-Cost Techniques for Creating an Interactive Web Site
John Houser, Senior Technology Consultant, PALINET

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 16
9 - 10:15 AM - The Impact of the Internet on Politics
Lee Rainie, Project Director, PEW Internet & American Life Project
There have been many predictions about the impact of the Internet on
politics. Is the Internet the lever for direct democracy? Or is it a wedge
for political polarization? Either conclusion may prove too simple. To
understand how technology might reshape politics, consider what has
been learned from the initial decade of online campaigning, and how
various fears and hopes have fared.
