The South Carolina State Library is pleased to announce that Niche Academy training is now available to all public, academic, and school library staff members in South Carolina. Niche Academy helps libraries deliver “experiences of delight” for their customers. The Academy provides online tutorials that educate library staff members about library resources and how to use them. These tutorials also help library staff members become more confident and effective in the day to day operations of the library.
Public, academic, and school library staff members in South Carolina may use Niche Academy for professional development learning opportunities. Also included on the Niche Academy platform is a full subscription to the PCI Webinars archives. To access these tutorials, library staff may visit the State Library’s Continuing Education LibGuide or contact Sarah Schroeder, Director of Library Development, at sschroeder@statelibrary.sc.gov or (803) 734-06061.
