SUMMARY
Library professionals teach every day in the sense that they show patrons where to find books or how to use computers. Increasingly, however, library users just don't have the time to attend face-to-face workshops in advance of needs that they may have. They want to know the answer to their questions when THEY need it, not when YOU teach it. Take Your Library Workshops Online! will help you move valuable "teachable moments" from the physical library or classroom to virtual spaces-- Back cover
