For northwest Ohio member libraries, NORWELD strives
to provide a variety of workshops to help staffs keep
pace with the job skills needed in today's rapidly
changing library environment of electronic information
sources and high user expectations. Our goal is to
sponsor approximately 30-35 workshops each year on
a broad spectrum of topics-from library services to
improving management skills to technology-related topics.
A needs assessment revealing deficiencies in job skills,
professional development requirements, and customer
trends is conducted through interviews, suggestions
on evaluation forms, and formal in-depth surveys. Input
into NORWELD's CE plan is welcome at anytime by filling
out the survey or suggestion
form on this web site.
NORWELD provides Web
registration for all topical and technology workshops.
Summaries and registration forms will be posted on
the NORWELD Web site at least six weeks before the
program date. We occasionally send out flyers as
reminders of certain events. We will not reserve
a place for you until a Web registration has been
received. Registrations will be accepted on a first-come,
first-served basis.
After filling out the Web registration form, you will
receive an electronic acknowledgement that the registration
was properly submitted. Next, you will receive an e-mail
confirmation from a NORWELD staff member that your
registration has been accepted and confirmed. If you
do not receive a message, please call the NORWELD office.
The deadline for registering online will be 3 working
days before the workshop date.
Registration fees vary depending on workshop costs.
With the variety and number of workshops now being
offered, the project budget is insufficient to cover
Continuing Education costs. Other agencies and consultants
offer similar classes at much higher prices. Upon registering,
please make arrangements for a check to be made out
to the Northwest Special Account and sent to our office:
Northwest Library District
181 1/2 South Main Street
Bowling Green, OH 43402
NORWELD prefers to receive payment prior to the workshop
date.
NORWELD will refund the registration fee to registrants
notifying our office three business days in advance
of the workshop. Registrants who do not send payment
in advance or do not attend the workshop without the
required notification will be billed for the registration
fee.
If NORWELD must cancel a program, we will notify the
registrant and refund the registration fee.
If the weather or some other emergency prevents us
from holding a workshop, NORWELD will try to notify
each registrant. If you are unsure of a workshop's
cancellation, location, or time, please call the NORWELD
office at 800-848-0144.
Please contact the
NORWELD office if you have special dietary or access
requirements.
Most of our technology and computer classes will be
held at the NORWELD Technology Training
Center located within our office complex at 181
? South Main Street, Bowling Green. Many of our workshops
on library services and issues are held at the NORWELD
Learning Center 183 South Main Street. If another
northwest Ohio site is chosen, a map will be available
through our CE Web page or sent by U.S. Mail.
