Here’s a breakdown of the events and presentation/discussions I’ll be doing over the next ten days or so in Switzerland and Germany. A big shout out to Nancy, Professor Hans-Christoph Hobohm and everyone at the embassies and U.N. Mission for making this trip happen.
Geneva:
March 8: Morning Tour of CERN
March 8: Two hour lunch discussion with members of AILIS, the Association of International Librarians and Information Specialists
Due to security protocols, I cannot bring my Mac into the mission, so I will be working from PDFs stored on local laptops.

This program is for social media folks from the Geneva area – thus the slightly altered slides.
