CSL in Session
Upon starting my position as the Professional Development Consultant for the Colorado State Library, one of my first duties was to take over development and facilitation of this unique online learning experience. The brainchild of a former colleague, CSL in Session provides a highly interactive format for hot library related topics, and boasts a national audience.

Library Creation and Learning Centers
I also have taken over content creation and maintenance of the Library Creation and Learning Centers website. Initially created as a home for the training materials from Colorado's BTOP grant program, my goal is to develop the site into a true learning center for Colorado library staff. Future plans for the site include adding a calendar of Colorado library classes, an XML feed of free national online training opportunities, and other online courses similar to the Getting Started with Library Customer Service module which I helped create in 2012.

Plinkit Video Tutorials
In addition to helping draft the latest Plinkit manual, I used Jing to develop a series of short videos detailing how to perform specific tasks within the Plinkit software. I wanted to create something short that would easily walk the user through each process step-by-step. The Jing videos allowed me to incorporate video and audio components. (Videos - Jing)
