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
