Join YALSA for its webinars! Keep up-to-date on developments in the field with these interactive learning sessions, presented by an expert YALSA trainer. Webinars are 60 minutes in length and include time for a question and answer period. Webinars take place at 2 p.m. Eastern. Questions? Contact Eve Gaus at egaus@ala.org or 1-800-545-2433, ext. 5293. All webinars provide one contact hour. Certificates of participation are available upon request. YALSA webinars are certified for one Library Education Unit in the state of Indiana.
Webinars cost $39 for individual YALSA members, $29 for students and $49 for all other individuals. Make YALSA webinars a learning event for your whole department with our group rate of $195!

YALSA does not distribute contact information to webinar sponsors. In addition, YALSA's webinars are lead by professional experts, selected by YALSA, and are not employees of paid sponsors.
