These live, online events are held in an online auditorium where participants can interact via voice-over-IP, text chatting, and synchronized browsing. OPAL allows library patrons and library staff members to participate in online library programs from anywhere. Everyone is welcome to participate in OPAL programs, and libraries of all types are encouraged to become OPAL members. By collaborating within OPAL, libraries are able to develop online programs together and offer a rich array of public online programs for all library users. Examples of OPAL public online programs include book discussion programs, interviews, special events, library training, memoir writing workshops, and virtual tours of special digital library collections. Participating OPAL libraries develop and deliver online programs, events, and meetings using software from Talking Communities. OPAL is administered by the Alliance Library System , the Mid-Illinois Talking Book Center, and the Illinois State Library Talking Book and Braille Service. Nearly all OPAL programs are open to all library users worldwide. Usually there is no need to register, and there are no registration fees.
