“Let’s Work Together: Online + Cloud Collaboration Tools”

>>> Addendum: Download the slidedeck (PDF format)

Register today for this program, and be there live at noon Mountain Time on Thursday, Sept. 15, 2011.

Do you work on or lead group projects, or do you support collaborative organizations? How do you collaborate with others, especially if they work in other cities, countries, and time zones? New project management platforms such as Basecamp, collaborative mindmapping, and wireframe/mockup tools like Mockingbird and Balsamiq join familiar tools like wikis and Google Docs to make teamwork easier, regardless of where everyone is located.

Join legal information consultants Connie Crosby and Kathie Sullivan for a tour of the latest collaborative tools being used in a number of industries and explore how libraries and information professionals can use them. Participants will learn to evaluate the range of new technologies available to enhance collaborative work and will learn about the skills needed to manage teams in collaborative work.
