ICoLIS wrap up and thank you

December 1, 2008

I’ve been back from Kuala Lumpur for over a week but between Jetlag, Thanksgiving and working this weekend I’m still not back to normal (whatever that means for me). However, I want to write a wrap up and thank you post before my memories get too hazy. I think one of the best things about ICoLIS was hearing an international perspective on many issues that are discussed at US conferences. The Keynote was given by Professor Christine Bruce from Australia, the following panel included speakers from Singapore, Iran and the US (me). Despite differences, it does seem, for the most part, we all have the same problems and are looking in the same direction. I also taught a post conference workshop to about 30 people. The conference was a great experience and I’m very thankful to everyone who made my attendance possible!

Becoming 2.0 – What 2.0 can do you for you

Becoming 2.0 – What 2.0 can do you for you

After much preperation the time has finally arrived! This week I’m cohosting a Web 2.0 workshop sponsered by MOREnet and the Missouri State Library. The topic – They asked us to talk about using Web 2.0 tools in your library! Even better, my cohost and I created the whole thing using Google Docs. How else are two people going to edit a presentation at all hours of the day and night? These will not be on my slideshare account if you want to see them you’ll have to check them out on the wiki after the end of the week. They wont all be up until the end of the workshop on Friday. If you don’t have, don’t want or just aren’t signed into your Google account you can watch the presentation. But if you want to get more from the presentation you should sign in. If you log in with your Google account you can see the Speakers Notes. You’ll be able to see the notes the speaker has entered for each slide, and in this case who is responsible for each section of the presentation.

Web 2.0 Class Complete!

February 28, 2008

By Bobbi Newman

Yesterday Robin and I finished our two day workshop on Web 2.0. It was so much fun! I have to agree with Robin, I was surprised at how excited about all things Web 2.0 I got just from talking about it for 2 days. Trust me, I had no problems talking about it for 2 days, I think I could have gone for a third! The classroom set up and number of participants was perfect, it allowed for some real hands on help when we gave them time to create and play with their new accounts. They were excited about what they can do and asked some really great questions. I can’t wait to see how they implement what they learned for themselves and for their libraries!

Workshop Prep

February 20, 2008

By Bobbi Newman

The next couple of months will be a flurry of activity for me personally and professionally. First up personally, I’m moving, no new job, just leaving my house and moving into an apartment in a nearby time. I’ve been busying making phone calls, finding a place to live and packing. I had no idea I had so much “stuff”! First up, professionally, I’m prepping for a 2 day work work shop that Robin and I are giving on Web 2.0 at Winter Institute. Robin and I co-present a bit differently than any other duo I’ve seen; instead of one of us presenting for the first half and the other for the second, we present together. We take turns on the slides and both contribute content to everything. It takes a bit more time, but I think it works great.
