WebJunction, an online learning community for librarians and library staff, has partnered with the State Library and Archives of Florida to launch the new WebJunction-Florida. Library staff in Florida will now be able to access courses at no individual cost through the WebJunction community, and use the site to keep their skills up-to-date and help their libraries respond to current patron needs. As part of this online learning community, members can take courses on a wide range of technology and library subjects - as well as connect with other library staff - creating an engaging learning experience.
This partnership takes advantage of WebJunction's Custom Catalog service, designed to maximise the customisation and reach of training through a centralised training catalogue with streamlined registration for all users. All WebJunction-Florida participants will be able to access courses, regardless of geographic location or library size. Additionally, as part of the Custom Catalog, WebJunction-Florida will be able to add unique, Florida-specific courses to the extensive course offerings from WebJunction that form the foundation of the catalogue.
WebJunction-Florida joins 17 library organisations that offer custom communities for libraries and staff. The site is now available at http://fl.webjunction.org.
