Yesterday was my last board meeting for the Friends of the Aurora Public Library. I’ll continue to be the group’s Web master since that’s something I can do remotely (and since no one else knows how,) but the bookstore manager duties have been handed over to the capeable hands of Jackie. I know she’ll do a wonderful job and be an asset to the organization.
This afternoon I did my last (online) presentation for BCR on wikis. (I’ve read and heard some interesting things about wikis lately that I’ll be blogging about (probably) next week when I get a little free time.) Thanks to everyone that attended my workshops over the past 9.5 years. You all made all the hard work worth it.
