I can’t believe we leave for Australia in less than a month! The research project is shaping up nicely as we comb through all the data and start analysis. Here’s a bit of what I’ll be doing:

October 2, 2009: Australian School Library Association Biennial Conference, Dr Laurel Anne Clyde Memorial Keynote Address: Engage, explore, celebrate: The Hyperlinked School Library,” Perth, Western Australia

October 11, 2009: Keynote, Queensland Public Library Association Conference, Townsville, Queensland.

October 11, 2009: Panel Discussion: “Challenges and Opportunities in Using Technology in Public Libraries” with Warren Cheetham, Coordinator, Information and Digital Services, Townsville City Libraries, David West, Senior Manager, Moreton Bay Region Libraries, and Paul Hagan, Senior Web Developer, Web Publishing Branch NLA, Queensland Public Library Association Conference, Townsville, Queensland.

We’ll be spending over a week in Melbourne working on the research project and running focus groups, as well as working (and sightseeing!) in Perth, Broome, Townsville and Sydney. This will be the longest I have ever been away from hearth and home – 5+ weeks! If you are attending any of my presentations or participating in the focus groups, please say hello.
