Other Partners

From time to time, Infopeople forms mutually beneficial alliances with other groups and organizations that have an interest in continuing education, staff development, and training for libraries. The specific details vary from alliance to alliance. Most are informal, although some are embodied in formal agreements or certifications. Some of these partnerships are with groups and organizations outside of California – Lyrasis, WebJunction, and the Western Council of State Libraries are examples. All partnerships are with nonprofit, library-specific organizations.
