From time to time, we like to draw attention to our growing list of archived webinar recordings. Maybe you missed one you had your heart set on joining, thought "I'll just catch the recording later!" - and then it got away from you.
This time, we're looking at an overview of our offerings from Gale Cengage Learning, presented by trainer Emily Mageski on January 12 to kick of our annual series of vendor webinars.

The collection provides a range of primary documents, including state and regional histories, biographies, speeches and more.
With a good balance of "what's in here" and "how do I find and use it" instruction, along with handy tools and tips easily overlooked, you may find this session well worth 50 minutes of your time.
