and experiences for users, but it takes a village to make change happen.
Using project management, libraries can accomplish strategic goals and
develop employees’ leadership skills. This webinar introduces best
practices for project management in the library, including the idea pitch,
stakeholders and resources, the charter, and points of communication toward
successful completion.

   Describe a project life cycle and skillfully map each stage in the
   cycle.
   -

   Compose a business case that accurately outlines the why, what, how, and
   who is necessary to determine if it is a worthwhile project.
   -

   Identify the resources needed for a project, including stakeholders,
   budget, team members and timelines.
   -

   Apply appropriate project management tools to projects at their
   institutions, using templates provided.

Who should attend?

Library employees from any type of library, including those who already
successfully use project management, those who wish to use it but aren't
