This is from Ann Reed at OSL who is coordinating the on-site Gale trainings:

We now have dates, times and firm locations for on-site Gale database training in Oregon this fall.  On-site trainings are presentation style.  Some facilities may have computers available for attendees to practice afterwards.  The attached PDF gives location details and will also be posted on the Gale implementation site shortly.

You must register if you plan to attend an on-site training session: http://library.state.or.us/services/surveys/survey.php?sid=561

On September 9, there is also an opportunity for institutions to connect to trainings via Polycom.  The registration survey indicates this as an option, and asks for the person at the desired polycom site to contact so technicians at Blue Mountain Community College can set up the connection.  We will be forwarding the list of institutions who have already expressed a desire for a Polycom connection to BMCC.  Likewise, we will input any emails we have received into the registration form.

If you are not able to open the attachment or have any questions, please contact Ann Reed at 503-378-5027 or ann.reed@state.or.us.
