Extractions: Judith Lechner, Jim Gravois and workshop particpants. On December 10, 1999, Auburn University Libraries, the College of Education and the East Alabama Regional In-service Center cosponsored an Alabama Virtual Library (AVL) training workshop for media specialists, librarians, teachers and administrators from school systems in east Alabama. Held in the Libraries' second floor computer lab, it was the second workshop sponsored and conducted by these entities. For clarification for those unfamiliar with AVL, here is some background information. In their regular legislative session of 1999, Alabama legislators approved the appropriation of three million dollars for a virtual library for the State of Alabama. Funded under the budget of the Alabama Public Library Service (APLS), the Alabama Virtual Library (AVL) began official operation on October 1, 1999, and is available in public schools/school media centers and public libraries with internet connectivity throughout the state. It is designed to bring to students and citizens of the state a wealth of information that has not been available in the majority of schools and libraries in the state The December 10th workshop, and its predecessor which was held in the computer lab of the College of Education's Learning Resource Center, were designed to give an overview of AVL databases to media specialists, librarians, teachers and administrators; to explore the particular features of the various databases for relevance to specific age groups; and to provide participants with a rudimentary understanding of how to search the various interfaces. Judith Lechner, Associate Professor in Educational Foundations, Leadership and Technology; Jim Gravois, Coodinator Library Instruction; and Jeanne Whitehead, Distance Education/Outreach Librarian conducted the workshop.
