Getting ready for this meeting

Get ready to Zoom!

Joining a meeting has instructions if you're new to Zoom.

You may also want to join the meeting a few minutes early (from 1:45pm) to check your tech — make sure your microphone, speakers, and webcam are ready to go.

Prepare to share

At our last meeting, we talked about some actions for you to follow up on, including weeding your collection, stocktake, and starting to write an annual report.

We'd love to hear how you got on with these, or hear how things are going in your library.

If you have a report to share or a photo or two you’d like to show everyone, please email them to Anne anne.dickson@dia.govt.nz by 9am Thursday 11 November.
