Library staff across Nebraska are accustomed to helping customers figure out how to use computers to access government information, but it’s always challenging to get everyone up and ready for something new. In the coming months, materials and training will be developed to prepare librarians for helping the library customers who will need assistance enrolling in the Health Insurance options made available by the Affordable Care Act. In this session, you will learn about resources that are currently available from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for professionals helping people apply and the new online toolkit and training webinars that are being created specifically for librarians by WebJunction. Speakers: Mary Sauers, Government Information Services Librarian, Nebraska Library Commission and Kendra Morgan, Senior Program Manager, OCLC WebJunction.
