Feedback from webinar attendees

Excellent--and timely--program topic.
Excellent hearing the candid perspective of the executive director, Carol Arnold
I picked up bits of useful information from each of the speakers, and it was worth the hour.
I've been a library director for a long time but still found valuable information in this program, and the discussion also made me thoughtful about other management issues. I love having the ability to attend these webinars. They are inexpensive and so very convenient.
Excellent program!
Carol Arnold's insights were particularly relevant and thought-provoking.
