"Done properly, book repair is an effective preservation strategy that can extend the useful life of a collection and reduce replacement and binding costs."

Wednesday's session will make it clear what repairs can best be done in-house and the most practical way to develop a program within your library to do them.

Specific repairs will be demonstrated, giving participants the opportunity for hands-on practice with the most common problems.

Topics included clustering to narrow a topic as well as evaluating books, NC LIVE resources, and web sites for research purposes.

When confronting work tasks, have you ever given second thought as to why you do what you do? Well, theory and research support that all humans act and perform best when relying on their unique instinctual style. In this workshop, you'll discover the 4 "instinctual styles" individuals within a work unit employ to problem solve and accomplish work tasks. Participants will identify their instinctual makeup, then explore the implications when only one approach to "getting the job done" is embraced and supported.
