Each year when librarians report on their internship experiences we learn more about what worked well and what tips they might have learned along the way that will make for a better internship next time. The one thing that we hear every year is about the importance of planning and selecting an intern that is the right fit for the library and for the tasks that are planned for the internship. JoAnn McManus and Mary Jo Ryan, both with the Nebraska Library Commission, will address the planning involved in preparing for a new intern and share tips to providing your intern--and your library--with a great experience. Although the presentation focuses on ensuring that the newly announced library grant recipients of the 2017 Nebraska Library Internship Grant Program are armed with great information, other libraries will also pick up great tips for how to prepare and make the most out of internships at their libraries.
The secret to successful internships is no longer a secret—it’s P L A N N I N G. JoAnn McManus and Mary Jo Ryan, both with the Nebraska Library Commission, will address the planning involved in preparing for a new intern and share tips to providing your intern, and your library with a great experience.

The economic impact of coronavirus means that many voluntary sector organisations will be going through a period of significant change over the coming months. For many of the hardest hit charities, the process of restructuring and making redundancies will sadly be inevitable. In this webinar we help organisations prepare for this context.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

48. PERSONNEL: Personnel Policies
GENERAL DISCLAIMER 1 of 2
This handbook is designed to acquaint you with the ABC Public Library (“the Library”) and provide you with information
about working conditions, employee benefits and some of the policies affecting your employment. You are responsible for
reading, understanding and complying with all provisions of the handbook. It describes many of your responsibilities as an
employee and outlines the programs developed by the Board of Library Trustees to benefit employees.
The employee handbook cannot anticipate every circumstance or question about policy. As situations arise that are not
addressed in the handbook, the need may arise to change policies described in the handbook. The Library therefore reserves
the right to revise, supplement, deviate from or rescind any policies or portion of the handbook from time to time as it
deems appropriate, in its sole and absolute discretion. The Library will make an effort to notify you of such changes as they
occur.
The employee handbook is not intended to create a contract of employment. Rather, it is simply intended to describe the
Library’s policies and procedures, employee benefits, and general guidelines. Employment and compensation can be
terminated, with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time at the option of either the employee or the
Library. No representative of the Library, other than the Board of Trustees has the authority to enter into any agreement for
a specified period of time or to make any agreement contrary to the foregoing. Any such agreement must be by individual
agreement, in writing and signed by you and the President of the Board of Trustees. No one has the authority to make verbal
statements of any kind at any time which, are legally binding on the Library or the Library Board of Trustees.
49. PERSONNEL: Personnel Policies
GENERAL DISCLAIMER 2 of 2
Federal, state or local laws or regulations shall supersede these stated policies, until corrections can be published, in the
following instances:
If any of the policies are or become in conflict with federal, state or local laws or regulations;
If any omissions or inclusions cause conflict with federal, state or local laws or regulations; or
If typographical or printer error should cause conflict with any federal, state or local laws or regulations.
Some of the subjects described herein are covered in detail in official policy documents, e.g., benefit plans. You should refer
to these documents for specific information, since the handbook only briefly summarizes the Library’s policies, procedures
and benefits.
Should there be any questions as to the interpretation of the policies or benefits listed in this handbook, the final explanation
and resolution will be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Library Board of Trustees, subject to federal, state and local
laws.
