Join us for an opportunity to have State Library staff walk you through the Edge Assessment. Participants will complete the Edge Assessment together, in person and hands-on, with guided, step-by-step instructions. Each question on the Assessment will be explained and advice on how best to answer for your library will be offered.

These work sessions are different from the Take the Pledge -- Join the Edge Learning Circuit events. The Learning Circuit will go much deeper into the reasons for using Edge, and how to maximize it to communicate your library's value to your community. Take the Pledge -- Join the Edge will be more meaningful for participants from libraries that have already completed the Assessment.

This work session is hands-on with participants working on laptop computers. You may bring your own laptop, if you can connect it to the wireless access point without assistance.
