I finally made it out to the new location of the Second Life Library and sat on one of the bookshelves. I made a few changes to my avatar (it’s still pretty plain and I still can’t figure out how to pull off a goatee) and was able to set the library as my home. Rain was there to give me some help but unfortunately I ran out of time. I will be attending the organizational meeting tonight. Check out the SL Library blog for details if you’re interested in participating.
