Continuing
Education @ OWLS
Background
Outagamie Waupaca Library System provides 4-6 continuing education activities each year. We also offer computer lab classes, online classes, and training by request. These activities, which are free, are designed for the professional development of OWLS librarians and trustees, but the programs may be attended by any library personnel interested in the topics in most cases. Registration for the programs is required.
View our Continuing Education Policy [pdf]. For more information about the continuing education program, contact Beth.
For more information about or help with certification, contact Rick.
