South Georgia Regional Libraries’ Staff Development Day
Cliff February 26th, 2008
I must say, it was a real treat to be able to present at the South Georgia Regional Libraries‘ Staff Development Day in my hometown of Valdosta, GA. I presented Using the “C” Word: Change and the Future of Libraries, which covers Web 2.0, Library 2.0, and adjusting to the rapid pace of change in libraries. The audience was excellent, had some good questions, and showed real enthusiasm for improving their libraries’ service. It was great to hear some of the things that folks were interested in doing at their libraries (and a big thanks to Chuck for playing tag-team with answering questions after the talk!). I was also lucky enough to watch the library staff do a SWOT Analysis of their libraries; I have done this before in my own library, but it’s always neat to see it from an outsider’s perspective. I’m really looking forward to what SGRL will produce in the upcoming months!
