* Note that there’s a cap of 300 phone lines (no cap on the number of VoIP connections); first come, first served and this does promise to be a popular couple of webinars. We will be archiving these sessions. You do NOT need to be a CARL member to attend.

Information for attending the CARL Webinar “So you’re thinking of upgrading your ILS”.

The webinars will take place on Wednesday, October 9 from 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Pacific Time and Wednesday, October 16, from 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Pacific Time. Both sessions will be recorded so if you are unable to make either or both, you will be able to watch them at a later date. Information on how to access the archived sessions will be sent out after the webinars have been recorded.

No prior registration is required for the webinar. Information on how to log into the sessions via CCC Confer is listed below. Please note that there are two different codes for dialing in, one code is for October 9th the other code is for October 16th. Please note that the system can only handle 300 telephone lines. If multiple people from your institution are planning on participating, please consider watching and dialing in together if you have a speaker phone. You can also use VOIP; this option does not have a limit on how many people can participate.
