The same two stipulations as always apply:
(1) You need a minimum of 12 attendees for a training session (they may be
teachers as well as library staff);
(2) You need a computer lab so hands-on training can be done.  A minimum of
six computers is required.  Public librarians, if necessary please talk to
your local school librarian(s) about arranging a school lab for after school
training use.

Best wishes and thanks Marcie!

Subject: Training your library staff members on EBSCO products

Dear Ms. Lord,

As a member of the Training Department at EBSCO Publishing's headquarters in
Ipswich, Massachusetts, I've had the opportunity to train your Kennebunkport
and Portland, Maine locations.  Specifically, I've trained at the Waynflete
School in Portland, and the Graves Library in Kennebunkport.

I'm writing to express an interest in continuing to show various sites in
Maine what has been made available to them via the state contract with
EBSCO, as the response to this has been very positive.

I know that you have sent some requests through our Regional Sales Manager,
Mr. Ed Roche, with whom I have communicated concerning my interest.  If I
can be of assistance in contacting locations on your behalf, or especially
in conducting future trainings as appropriate, please contact me.

Best regards,

Marcie Brown, Manager, Training & Staffing
