Online Library Instruction: Schedule/Register

Welcome!

You can see our upcoming webinars on the calendar and in the list below. We offer several different topics at this time. Make sure that you are taking the one best for your needs or that your instructor has specified for your course. To register, just click on the link provided in the calendar date boxes below or the appropriate link in the boxes on the right to choose your preferred date and time. You will then fill out a short registration form.

Once you register, you will receive an email with the session details and the link to the online meeting room. Please watch for the email after registering since each webinar might have a unique link and may require a password.

NOTE TO STUDENTS!

  • Please be sure that you are signing up for the correct webinar! Your instructor may have directed you to this page to sign-up only for a particular date or topic, please pay attention to your instructor's wishes if this is the case. For example, an instructor may offer extra credit or assignment points for attending an MLA Style Format webinar (but NOT an APA one!) because MLA is the style used in her course assignments. 
  • Successful webinar participation is determined for each attendee by the individual webinar facilitator and may consist of any combination of time logged into the session and the use of certain features in the webinar platform (solicited audio or typed feedback, polls, surveys and/or activities).
  • Grades or points awarded are solely at the discretion of HCCS course instructors and not by the HCCS librarians/webinar facilitators.  
  • We cannot report successful attendance in the case of any technical difficulties you might have had that prevented your attendance. 
  • Registration may not be allowed after a session has begun, or for a period of time before a webinar begins.
  • Webinars may be canceled if there are no registrations as of one hour before the session's start time.
  • Webinars with registrations may be canceled if no attendees have entered the session as of fifteen minutes (or 25% of the session's scheduled time, whichever is less) after the session's start time.
