Just a reminder that RUSA's online course Business Reference 101 starts next Monday, May 10, and we have an available seat with your name on it! This course is appropriate for librarians and library staff of all types who wish to acquire business reference expertise. You'll come away with skills and information that help you answer business reference questions efficiently and with confidence! Specifically, the course will demystify such topics as SIC, NAICS codes, ROI and 10ks. Students will also have access to such proprietary business reference databases as Standard & Poor's Net Advantage and Thomson/Gale's Business & Company Resource Center. This consistently sold-out course will be taught by Celia Ross, chair of RUSA's Brass section and an experienced facilitator and practitioner in the business reference field. You can read a full course description at the RUSA website: http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/rusa/development/businessreference101/ index.cfm Register now at this NEW LINK: http://www.ala.org/Template.cfm?Section=oloc&Template=/Conference/Confer enceList.cfm&ConferenceTypeCode=L (use this one instead of the one at our website!) Due to the popularity of this course, we are keeping registration open through close of business (4:30pm Chicago time) on Monday, May 10, but don't wait!
