I thought I would do something different today and offer a challenge.
I was reading the ALA Direct and came across a website offered by Microsoft to “improve search results”
See how well you do on Page Hunt
Object of the game: Look at the website shown and guess the phrase or words that will ‘Hunt” down the website. The site must be a top 5 hit to win points.
Feel free to leave a comment with you high score.Â
Happy playing!
Meetings are a fact of work life. Meetings can advance understanding and informed decisions – or feed frustration and waste time. In “Control Is Not A Dirty Word: Effective Meeting Management,†Upper Hudson Library System presents a workshop in which you will learn how to:
o Determine when to hold a meeting
o Design a meeting to get the outcome you want
o Keep the meeting on track by managing difficult personalities, conflicts, and interruptions
o Positively influence productivity of meetings you are attending but not running
