Hi everyone,

I spend much of my time richocheting between websites these days. I write two blogs: a social networking and library issues blog called Library Stream, and book review blog called Mostly NF. But you'll often find me posting photos on Flickr, too.

As a library trainer, I have a blast teaching a Social Web Literacy course (for which there's a class blog -- an RSS feed is below on the left side of this page). Several people have told me the class blog was useful to them just to get a taste of what we cover in the course. If you stop in to look, I'd love to hear what you think of it. Drop me a line in Library 2.0 Ning.

Spinoffs from that class have included library blogs, podcasts, a library wiki, the library Flickr page, a MySpace page, dozens of social sites produced by newly-addicted staff, and an in-depth LibraryThing class for reference librarians. Even more to come... It's an exciting time.

I'm also in LibraryThing and Facebook and on Ning's: Library 2.0 and LibrarianBloggers

What a treat to have Erik Larson coming to your library. Does he live in Washington?
