I was a panelist at the OCLC Symposium preconference event. It was a blast – there were some great speakers, too, including:
keynote speaker, Michael Schrage, author of Shared Minds—The New Technologies of Collaboration and columnist for CIO and MIT’s Technology Review
Susan Gibbons, Associate Dean, Public Services & Collection Development, University of Rochester (NY) River Campus Libraries
Mary Beth Sancomb-Moran, Librarian, University of Minnesota, Rochester
and me…
If you missed the presentations, never fear! You can view the video version! Go to this page and choose the Mashed Up Library event (currently only viewable using Internet Explorer).
What a blast! Vancouver is a fun city to explore, and the people who attended my session were great – lots of good questions and interaction.
Youth, kids, teens, and 2.0 stuff – amazing area to explore. Did you know there are elementary school classes that blog? They assign one child as the “reporter of the day” – that kid takes photos and blogs the entire day’s events for that class. What a cool way to learn writing, blogging, photography, and 2.0 technology!
