Event Name:
Serving Veterans in the Library

Competency:
Patron and Community Awareness and Customer Service

Description:
Veteran Americans are special people who have proudly served to protect and defend the United States of America.  Their significant contributions and experiences - all the result of skilled military training (tactical, moral/spiritual, group-based) -- present many opportunities and some challenges in several key areas (employment, healthcare, community engagement).  This webinar will help library professionals identify Veteran Americans' needs, learn more about Veteran American resources/information, and understand what Veteran American support organizations do (and how to engage them to enable the creation and presentation of Veteran-centric programming/historic preservation projects).

Learning Objectives:
  • Learn about  creating successful veteran outreach programs
  • Learn more about veterans and their needs
  • Hear about ways to identify veterans in your community to encourage them to tell their stories.
Presenter:
