Making Your Images Ready for the Web with Laura Solomon
September 14, 2023 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm CDT
Register for live webinar or recording
Are you responsible for creating and/or posting graphics or photos online? Are your photos stretched or pixelated? Are graphics optimized specifically for specific social media channels? Are website images inadvertently sucking up your patron’s (expensive) mobile bandwidth? Does your library follow recommended best practices, to get the most attention for your images?
You may not even be aware of some of the issues that web images can create for your patrons. In this webinar, we’re going to help you get your images ready for prime time.
Laura Solomon is the Library Services Manager for the Ohio Public Library Information Network and a W3C-certified front-end web developer. She has been doing web development and design for more than twenty years, in both public libraries and as an independent consultant. She’s written three books about social media and content marketing, specifically for libraries, and speaks nationally on both these and technology-related topics. As a former children’s librarian, she enjoys bringing the “fun of technology” to audiences and in giving libraries the tools they need to better serve the virtual customer.
PLAN webinars are free for all Florida library staff and volunteers.
