[Web4lib] Help with learning about Wordpress as CMS

[Nicole Engard]

Jennifer,

Where are you located? I teach workshops on WordPress and I know other
librarians who do too.  I can point you to a workshop in your area if
I know where you're located.  Otherwise, I recommend signing up for
wordpress.com (for free) and learning how to use it by doing - it's
very very very very very easy :)
