Just a quick pair of thanks to the librarians at Love Library on the campus of University of Nebraska, Lincoln and to the attendees of the Southeast Library System (NE) 2008 Training Extravaganza, both of whom I spoke for last week. Both groups were fun and my hosts were a pleasure to work with. Below is a photo of some Wii Boxing fun which will link you through to my other photos from the SELS event. (My presentation was on LibraryThing and it was not recorded nor were there handouts.) Video, audio, and the slides from my UNL talk are available through the NLC blog.
Oh, and UNL librarians: Yes, Diana will be one of your students this fall. Got any work-study openings?
