This webinar will focus on bed bugs as library pests – what to watch for, what to do when they are discovered, and how to prevent them from taking up lodging in your library. You’ll learn strategies for dealing with infested materials, affected patrons, and worried staff. We’ll also discuss common bed bug myths, the elements of a bed bug mitigation plan, and the items you should include in your bed bug defense kit.
Across our country, millions of students attend school safely every day. We have prepared them to meet life’s challenges for years. Tragically, in light of recent events, we must now prepare them for the unthinkable. Both in our schools, and increasingly in our places of work, worship, and recreation, individuals with only violent intent bring unexpected death and destruction into our daily lives. Join us for this webinar with the Indiana State Police to learn some survival strategies for active shooter events.
