Webinar: self-help guides, tutorials, and FAQs

There is a free webinar on July 10 2020 at 1.30pm US Eastern time (which is, e.g., 6.30pm UK time) from the Special Libraries Association's Education Division, as part of their Inside Byte series. "During this pandemic environment, the uncertainty of in-person access to the library makes providing some kind of 24/7 help even more critical. In an ongoing project begun several years ago, librarians at the University of Alaska Anchorage created a series of self-help guides, tutorials, and FAQs to serve students with their most basic research needs. Join us as we share our best practices so that you too can learn how to create or improve your library's 24/7 self-help content efficiently and effectively." The presenters are: D’Arcy Hutchings (Instructional Design Librarian), Jennifer McKay (Nursing and Education Librarian), Anna Bjartmarsdottir (Instruction and Research Librarian and liaison to English, Writing, Creative Writing, and Theater) and Daria O. Carle (Science Librarian) - they are all at the UAA/APU Consortium Library at the University of Alaska Anchorage. To register go to https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/1733173780110116367

Are these sessions recorded and can they be sent to those who register?

It may be that if you register you get sent a link to the recording, but I could only see links to the slides, on the SLA website (in individual blog posts at https://connect.sla.org/education/home)
