Thanks to the folks at Thomastown Library for hosting my two sessions as well as all the great people at CAVAL and the State Library of Victoria.
Thanks everyone for a great first day of presentations. I really enjoyed talking with the attendees in the morning session and the staff of Macquarie University Library in the afternoon. I caught a nasty bug on the plane that has taken a bit of wind out of my sails, but I’m feeling better now. 🙁

Welcome Originally uploaded by mstephens7 Arrived safe and sound. I look forward to the first presentations on Tuesday. Off to enjoy summer! (Sorry Chicago folk)
Don’t miss the newly remodeled Swiss Army Librarian, I’ve really enjoyed some recent posts about open source, book suggestion links and a category devoted to reference questions. Social media in the 1990s – remember the days? The ALA Code is Not Enough: Fascinating thinking from the Other Librarian. Adding to course readings.
