VIVA: VIVA User's Group Meeting, 2020
In March, 2020, COVID-19 brought all of our daily activities to a sudden halt. Spring breaks were extended, campuses closed, and everyone scrambled to bring classes online. This year's VIVA User's Group meeting will focus on the ways that VIVA's member libraries rapidly adjusted to support their communities in a time of crisis, creatively responded to changing needs, and continue to adjust to support higher education during a pandemic. Please join us for a panel discussion, short presentations, and the annual update on VIVA consortium products and activities.
