SpringyCamp for All Libraries is coming up on October 24 at 12pm - 3:30pm US ET and October 29 at 12pm - 3:00pm US ET, and we have two days full of activities! Take a look at our camp schedule for a lineup of amazing presentations by libraries of all types and sizes around the world!
What is SpringyCamp?
SpringyCamp is our virtual user conference where real-life Springshare users share how they’re using Springy Tools inside their library. Get inspired and receive practical tips and applications…all from the comfort of your computer. Plus the virtual s’mores are completely calorie-free.
You'll get first looks at our new features and products while learning how to utilize current products in new ways. There will be fun camp activities in between with chances to win gift cards and exclusive camp socks!
Eager to start camping now? View our recordings of SpringyCamp for Public Libraries while you wait! There are videos about streamlining passport services, utilizing A-Z Resources, improving reference services, and more!
