Specific attention will be given to Wisconsin laws. The tutorials include three modules, each consisting of a short (8-9 minute) video, links to additional reading, and a short quiz. Library directors and managers can access a short tutorial with suggestions for working with staff, creating policies, and other administrative tasks related to protecting patron privacy.
