The Travelin' Librarian

Friday and Saturday I’ll be attending the Colorado Association of Libraries (CAL) 2006 conference here in Denver, CO. I’ll be of course posting to my blog about it as much as I can. Additionally:

• I will be presenting my Tech Terms session on Saturday @ 2pm. At this point I don’t know what room I’ll be presenting in. (Heather Clark of BCR and Steve Lawson of Colorado College will be performing a special introduction to my presentation. This is something you’re not going to want to miss.)
• My latest book Blogging and RSS: A Librarian’s Guide will be available for purchase at the BCR booth at a conference discounted price of only $24.00. (Cash and checks only.)
• At 3pm on Saturday during the ice cream social I will be signing my book at the BCR booth.
• At CAL’s request I’ve set up a conference wiki on which will be posted conference updates and session reviews during the conference. Be sure to check it out if you’re not attending the conference.
• Yesterday I worked with the folks running the conference to standardize on the tag “cal2006″ when it comes to posting flickr photos and blogging. So, if you’re looking for photos or other blog posts just search on that tag.

I’m looking forward to catching up with everyone at the conference so be sure to find me and say hi.
