Publisher: ALA Editions Price: $250.00 **Group rates apply** 6-week eCourse Beginning Monday, November 4, 2013 Do you find yourself experiencing the "patron-asks-for-reading-suggestion-and-mind-goes-blank" phenomenon during a readers' advisory interview? Form-based readers' advisory moves beyond traditional methods such as general book lists, open-ended interviews, and counter displays, allowing you to develop RA services that are more efficient and responsive to library users' needs. In this eCourse, you'll go in-depth and learn all about this exciting RA model, from start (getting administrative and staff buy-in) to finish (building forms and training staff members).
