With all the busy-ness of work in the library, there\u2019s very little time to meet as a group to talk about the experiences we\u2019ve had at recent conferences, webinars, workshops, and other professional development events. \u00a0Have you ever asked someone, \u201cHow was the conference you went to last week?\u201d To which they probably replied, \u201cGreat!\u201d \u00a0You wanted to hear more, they probably would have liked to tell you more. But that was all the time there was.<\/p>\n

So here is the place where we can all find out more and benefit from our amazing collective experiences in all areas of library and IT work. \u00a0This summer has been filled with learning both here in Storrs (think of the Sciences Boot Camp!), statewide, regionally, and nationally.<\/p>\n

Next time you attend an event, especially if you were the lucky one to receive library support to attend, gather your notes and post some highlights here before you forget. This blog is only internal to library staff and is not shared publicly so don\u2019t worry about the \u201csocial media\u201d aspects. It\u2019s just for us. Hopefully you\u2019ll ignite a fire for someone else and energy will build. \u00a0Be creative. Two short posts, one longer one, a few choice URLs from the presenter, your evaluation or recommendation of the event, and your most memorable take aways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
