Online Northwest
February 8, 2013
Online Northwest is a conference focusing on
the use of technology within libraries. It was created by the Oregon University
System Library Council to help librarians around Oregon learn how to use
early online searching tools. As information technology and librarians have
increased in sophistication over the years, so has the conference.
Online Northwest is a one-day conference focusing on topics that intersect libraries, technology and culture. The conference is sponsored by the Oregon University System Library Council.
