I went to the Traverse Area District Library today to print articles to read for my preliminary research. I finally got to meet Jeff, who works in IT there and who has been an IM buddy for over 2 years. He and David, the head of tech services, took me on a tour of their beautiful library and surroundings! What a nice diversion to hang with some library folk.

This ALA was all about conversations. I was fortuante to have sit downs […]
I’ve caught up a bit with that ALA post so i am unplugging to focus on school and relaxation during the next week and a half.

I’ll be back to blogging around the 20th.
Great stuff for Lita Top Tech Trends from Sarah, our dear Librarian in Black.

http://meredith.wolfwater.com/wordpress/index.php/?p=253 Meredith writes an insightful post about blogging at work. I was intrigued to read/hear about her interviews recently. Library folk who hire: if you are not looking at a potential employees online presence, you should be! And if you don’t know how blogging, wikis and sites such as flickr are changing the profession, you better learn. You never know what types of questions interviewees may ask. For example: Do you have a blogging policy at the library? Does blogging count as publishing/contributing to the field at evaluation time? What collaboration tools does the library use to enhance work? What […]
