Subject: [ARLIS-L] An update from Library Juice Academy
Hello from Sacramento. We are working from home, but we do that normally anyway. We're compartmentalizing and finding distraction in our work in this very disturbing time.
I want to give you a few updates from Library Juice Academy.
The first thing to mention is that we're not terribly impacted by what is happening in a business sense. Classes are running normally, and we're available to help with issues that people may have.
We have 20 classes listed for April, all of them going ahead as planned. The MarcEdit class is full (two sections), but it is being taught again in August. A number of other classes are almost full, so you might want to jump on it if you're hoping to take one of our April classes. April classes start next Monday.
https://libraryjuiceacademy.com/courses.php
One April class in particular that I want to promote is the first class in our new series for support staff. We have a slate of ten classes for the ALA-APA Library Support Staff Certification program. The first one we're offering is one of the required courses, the Foundations course. It starts next Monday.
https://libraryjuiceacademy.com/242-LSSC-Foundations.php
We are launching a new website later today. It has a number of improvements over the old site, but it may be wonky in ways that we aren't aware of yet, so if you have feedback for us, please send it. We've been having issues with a security certificate recently, so it's possible that you may be blocked from accessing the site. Please let me know if you encounter that. It may help us solve the issue. The site will be down for an hour or two sometime today. https://libraryjuiceacademy.com/
The discount code that we had running in March will continue through April. Use the discount code CRISIS10 for a 10% discount at checkout if you're paying online, and mention it if you contact me to arrange a different method of payment. By the way, the same discount code can give you 10% off our books at our bookseller partner, Parlew Distribution. (We're a book publisher too, if you didn't know that. You can find our books at https://litwinbooks.com/ , with links to the bookstore from each book description.)
Regarding payments, we recognize that a lot of institutions have had their payment procedures interrupted. We can be flexible and find solutions to accommodate whatever situation you might be in.
Please take care of yourselves and each other. Feel free to contact me if you have anything to say about what we're doing or any thoughts on what else we can do to help, or just want to connect.
Take care and be well,
Rory Litwin
