An even more interesting night

I’d just about finished writing my last blog entry when I get a tap on my shoulder and hear “Don’t be antisocial Michael. Come join us.” It’s Darlene Fitcher asking me to join her and a few others at another table. There were a few comings and goings but over the next two and a half hours I ended up talking and joking with Jane Dysart (Computers in Libraries and Internet Librarian Conference Program Chair), Roy Tennant (California Digital Library), Greg Schwartz (Louisville Free Public Library), Frank Cervone (Northwestern University), and Stephen Abram (President Elect of the Canadian Librarian Association.) Now there’s a crowd you want to be hanging out with in the library technology world. (I was most freaked out when Roy Tennant introduced himself and in response to my introduction replied “From BCR, right?”)

By the way, it turns out that it was Darlene that searched for CIL blog entries and brought up this blog. I bet she’s starting to think I’m virtually stalking her. (At least I’ve finally got her name right. I’m sure she’ll correct me if I’m wrong. 😉
