The ILA Noon Network is a learning resource for Illinois library professionals. The ILA Noon Network is a series of afternoon micro-learning webinars on a variety of topics designed to assist Illinois library professionals in meeting their professional development objectives.
Webinars are thirty minutes to an hour and include a question and answer session. Webinars are held on Mondays and Wednesdays at noon throughout the year (webinars are not held in October and December). If you have an idea for a future webinar or would like to present please email ILA Communications and Engagement Manager Tamara Jenkins at tjenkins@ila.org.
All ILA Noon Network webinars are free. Registration for all live webinars is limited to Illinois libraries.
Recordings of webinars will be available to ILA personal and institutional members in the Noon Network Archive 1-3 days after the live event.
