Rockin', Library Bloggin' Ladies on Web Presence

LibrarianInBlack is one of my most favorite blogs!

Today she discusses the difference between "web presence" and "website" which I think is relevant for all of us to consider. Especially as we try to brand our libraries, our services and ourselves. Trackback link is http://www.typepad.com/t/trackback/12541/21820983.

She quotes Library Web Chic's blog (also great!) here . She has been discussing her library's website redesign for a while and has been providing lots of valuable insight.

Thanks Ladies!

Vacation is over

I've been away from my blog for a while--took an actual vacation and have been visiting with family and friends the past month.

So, school has started up again and the kids are in the library doing research and testing the limits of the staff. It's a fun time getting back in touch with parents and kids who have become regulars and making new friends in readers' advisory.

I have become somewhat nostalgic and have been looking up people from my past--to see where they are and what they are doing. I've actually found some lost friends. :) wink.com is a great people finder and google can be if you use quotes around the person's name.

Cheers to fall, a time of fabulous smells, colors and reconnection!
