VIVA APA Training

Join the VIVA Resources for Users Committee and the American Psychological Association for a "train the trainers" session on the APAnet platform. APA is VIVA's new provider for PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES, and PsycBOOKS.

Regional training sessions for VIVA librarians will be held in Roanoke, Richmond, Virginia Beach, and Fairfax. We encourage attendees to register for the closest session. VIVA will reimburse mileage only for travelers from both public and private institutions. Please see the VIVA travel guidelines here: VIVA travel guidelines

Each session will last approximately two hours. The agenda for each training day is:

9:30-10:00 AM Registration and Coffee
10:00 - 12:00 Training

Please register early as space is limited. Please keep in mind that this is a "train the trainer" event, so we ask that no more than two people from each instituion register for the training. Registration deadlines are noted below. Registration is available here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BGZMZ3Z.
