<p class="MsoNormal">In our connected environment, security is a tremendously
important element of any system.
Institutions large and small have been targets of attack and libraries
are a significant vector of approach for those attacks, because of their bias
toward access and sharing of resources. In addition to personal information
about patrons, library systems store a variety of valuable information and
provide gateways to numerous other resources. All of these realities mean that information
specialists must be aware of potential risks and how to address them. <span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This two-part webinar program will focus on best practices
that libraries can undertake to ensure their services are protected and secure.
Part one of the webinar, scheduled for November 9, will cover management of
internal systems and methods of securing library systems and the data that they
hold. <span></span></p>
