The Metrowest Region provides relevant continuing education and staff development opportunities in response to the needs of Metrowest members. Programs will range from large group presentations on topics of interest to all librarians as well as hands on computer training workshops.
The Regional Staff will also serve as a clearinghouse for all educational opportunities relevant to library staff and will post program announcements on the Metrowest Web Site at www.mmrls.org/ce.html.
To support these continuing education efforts, a professional collection of books, periodicals, training materials, policies, documentation, and videos is available for circulation. Members may request to borrow these items through e-mail or phone and items will be sent through the Regional Delivery system or the U.S. mail. A list of these items is available on the Metrowest Web Site at www.mmrls.org/profcoll.html.
Consulting Services
The Regional Staff provides consulting services on library issues to trustees, educational supervisors, school and library board members, and other town officials. Staff is also available to provide advice and technical support on many issues such as library technology, policy development, planning, and other aspects of library management.
To enhance these services, a list of consultants with expertise on various library topics such as planning, building projects, and technology is available at the Metrowest Web Site at www.mmrls.org.
Annual Survey
Each year a survey will be conducted to determine the continuing education needs of library staff. This survey will be used to develop programs and workshops for the year.
