[Kevin King]

We are very happy to announce that Pete Sneathen from Herrick District Library and Eric Hayes from Orion Township Public Library will be presenting at Library Upload 2018! 

Pete will discuss how his library is using Office 365 as their collaboration suite. Eric will be talking about open-mesh Wi-Fi networks.

There is still plenty of time to register! Don’t delay! Makes a great Holiday gift!



Technology and IT departments in libraries can be small – or sometimes non-existent! Do you ever feel isolated in your tech projects? Do you feel like you must be reinventing the wheel? If so, it is time to register for the 3rd Annual LibraryUpload event!
    
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdbysCJAZ5H9fG1tCJmOBdpLtzRkfvs5wtIz_J4J7XPFyDjXQ/viewform?usp=sf_link The focus of these meetings will be projects and issues that face anyone with the responsibility of IT in their library. The goal is to get together, share our own projects, ask questions, and learn from others in similar IT-type situations. This is the event created by IT people for IT people. This event has been a great success each year! IT professionals from all over Michigan attended. Please register by January 5, 2018.
