…and head home from Monterey in the morning…From Liz Lawley, keynoter and blogger… http://mamamusings.net/archives/2005/10/25/glory_days.php Here at Internet Librarian, I see the next posse hanging in the halls.

Ten Steps to Insure Staff Buy-In for the Technology Projects “Why are we doing this?” A few months ago the Reference staff at SJCPL trained the librarians who would be using IM at their service desks. Katie, who was doing the particular session I heard about, asked the group: “Why are we doing this training?” “IM is cool” Someone said…”IM is so hot right now,” said another (who may read my blog too much!) “Nope,” Katie said. “We are doing this because […]
