Tech-Savvy Trustees: Advocating for the Library’s Technology Needs
Last night I had the honor and pleasure of presenting the Trustee Keynote for the 2013 Iowa Small Libraries Online Conference. I’d like to again thank Bonnie McKeown for the invitation and everyone who attended for taking your time do do so and for all of the wonderful comments.
Below is a slightly revised version of the presentation I gave live (added material that I mentioned on two slides) and as soon as the recording is available I’ll be sure to post it here.
