Are you curious about a free, open source alternative to Microsoft Office? Meet OpenOffice, the leading open-source office suite for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. Learn how it measures up to the competition, how it can be used in libraries and other factors that will help you decide if OpenOffice is for you.

At the end of the webinar, participants will:

  • Be familiar with the platform requirements for running OpenOffice
  • Be able to identify which versions of Microsoft products are compatible with OpenOffice, and vice-versa.

Webinars are free of charge and registration is only done on the day of the event on the WebEx server. No passwords are required.
