Hi. I didn’t link the photos from my trip yet. There are a lot of nature shots but some good ones of the Haskell Library, the one that straddles the US-Canada border. You can see them here.

Hi. Permalinking is now a bit more functional and obvious. Let me know if anything isn’t working like it should. I’ve added a few more dates to my sidebar calendar. I’m sending my registration today for the Dartmouth conference in October. I’ve also been invited to somehow give a talk at a New Librarians Symposium in Adelaide Australia in December. This will probably take place via some sort of teleconference, but maybe, just maybe, I can get some funding and go. If anyone has any creative ideas on how to raise funds for a plane ticket to Australia, please let me know.

Hi. In the interests of screen real estate, I’ve made the archives for month and category into pulldown menus and removed the counts from the category lists. If this breaks on any of your browsers, please let me know. The actual archival pages will still have the old lengthy list format.

Hi. I just got back from my trip and boy did I see some lovely libraries. The ones I went into included the Haskell Free Library in Derby Line [free WiFi, even when the library is closed] which had a wonderful librarian with one of those ALA buttons who gave us a free tour of the opera house as she went through to turn off the lights. Also saw the Alice Ward Library in Canaan which has unusual architecture and historical society exhibits upstairs. I have some pictures, they’ll be online sometime soon. In the meantime, check out this little birthday web page that my Mom made me about the Monhegan Library on Monhegan Library in Maine.

Hi. At long last the “Ask A Librarian” issue of The Reference Librarian that I edited has been published and is getting some okay reviews. Since the issue was put to bed in the middle of last year, it’s not really discussing cutting edge technologies, but since these things catch on in fits and starts perhaps it will teach people a thing or two.
