ELM Expo Sessions

Vendor sessions with trainers from Britannica, Ebsco, Gale, and (we hope) ProQuest. Learn about new resources, interfaces, and features.

Learn More

Electronic Library for Minnesota (ELM) is an outstanding suite of databases available to all Minnesotans. Join us to learn more about ELM, the specialized databases available, which database is best for what, and more. Learn with the experts how to search, save, and share your results. Take home tips on how to teach the databases to users.

This day-long training event will give you the chance to attend multiple sessions tailored to your interests and experience. Computers available, but feel free to bring your own laptop or tablet to personalize your learning.

All levels of experience welcome! Novice or advanced searcher, there will something for you.

Who Should Attend

Public, academic, school, and special librarians. School librarians (K-12) are urged to come as a team with History Day Teachers, Guidance Counselors, English Teachers, STEM Teachers, and anyone who uses ELM or wants to use ELM in libraries or classrooms. CEUs available.

Brought to you by CMLE, Metronet, and Minitex.

CMLE has scholarships for this event for registration, mileage, and/or to subsidize the cost of your employer hiring a substitute worker. Recipients would be able to apply for other scholarships in the future; this wouldn’t ‘count’ against a future award. Contact other multitypes for scholarships in those regions.
