“ MAKE A STATEMENT WITH YOUR STAFF INTRANET”
Sponsored by the Reference Committee of the Public Library Section

How do you develop an Intranet to truly meet the communication and informational needs of your staff? Get them involved in the development and creation process! Building a staff Intranet can be a lot of work. Keeping it up to date and fresh is another challenge. Staff from the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County will share their experience in developing their fully integrated staff Intranet (now in its third generation). Topics include getting started, development issues, shared staff responsibility, maintenance components, and tips for getting staff return so that your internal investment makes a STATEMENT. At the end of this program, participants will be able to

*Understand how a well-organized staff Intranet can assist in keeping the communication up and going
*Identify the issues in developing a staff Intranet
*Provide ideas for building your own Intranet community

Lida Pinkham, PLCMC, will lead the discussion on the Charlotte project and field questions from interested participants.
