NECC 2008

I wasn’t able to go to NECC – but I saw this link on a blog about the presentation of the many librarians.   I plan to take a look at this when time permits.

Summer!

Summer is here!  It is difficult to sit down and think about ‘school stuff’.  While I am and spending time revamping the web page for August, I am still reading my bloglines account entries.  I find great things, but I am not intentionally diving into each thing.  So I decided to post them on my blog and then I can go back.

1.  Did You Know 2.0 Update (From Karl Fisch)
