Websites to Know & Webinars to Watch


Florida Library Webinars
Only Florida library employees can register for an account and watch live webinars but anyone can watch the on-demand webinars. Click here to see what’s available.


SirsiDynix COVID-19 Resources
SirsiDynix offers webinars about how libraries are responding to COVID-19 and they also have library resources, links to the latest information from the CDC and Johns Hopkins, and a section of staff resources. A staff member suggested one of the webinars on this site but there’s a lot more relevant information on SirsiDynix’s resources page than just the webinars.


A staff member said, “This one was really interesting! I really admire how inclusive this library is and how they create a safe space for the people in the community when not everyone in their town is accepting.”


We’re Not Closed—We’re Live! from EBSCO, LibraryAware, and NoveList
A number of staff members have watched this microtraining (30 minute session) that offers ideas for libraries to connect with patrons while their physical buildings are closed. More staff may want to view it because one employee said this webinar was, "helpful and inspiring!”
