Professional Development
There is a wide range of opportunities for professional development. Schedules and information are available through the appropriate professional associations. Their members usually are entitled to a discount in fees. By cooperating with other local libraries, it may be possible to schedule a training session in a nearby location. It may also be possible to negotiate a method of mutual substitution, so that professional development events or conferences can be attended on alternate dates and information exchanged with each other afterwards. Some special interest groups offer on-line courses, so that participation is not dependent upon getting a substitute for the library.
