Here is a training opportunity from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. The Library of Texas (www.libraryoftexas.org) is a new "meta-search engine" offered by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. This web site allows users to search most TexShare databases and 120 different Texas library catalogs with a single search - or tailor their search to fit their personal needs. A new FREE six-hour workshop will teach participants to use the Library of Texas as a reference tool. They will learn to perform basic and advanced searches on the Library of Texas, locate automatic help screens, and create a Library of Texas search profile. They will also learn to train adult patrons to use the Library of Texas, as well as to run basic statistical reports on the Library of Texas and to contact appropriate technical support for connecting the participants' home library catalog to the Library of Texas if they so desire. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Public and academic library employees who assist customers with reference questions.
