ELM Expo recap

3 Comments

On November 6th, 2015 the first ELM Expo was held in Anoka. The day was filled with break-out sessions where over 90 attendees could learn more about the ELM databases from Minitex staff and vendors. Everything we’re hearing from attendees is that it was a resounding success. From ELM Basics to LearningExpress the day was full of hands-on learning. This event was offered through the collaborative efforts and combined resources of CMLE, Metronet, and Minitex.

Minitex staff included an article about this event in their December Reference Notes.

“I was so excited to learn more about ELM. Having the opportunity to learn more about this amazing resource… will empower me to help my students access information that will help them on projects; find resources that will help me build more engaging lesson plans, and be a source for colleagues who are looking for materials.” – ELM Expo attendee
