Welcome Them!

About Me:: I covet the chief librarian's moustache (but she really must update that comb-over)

Do you want to volunteer to help with the Library 2.0 virtual conference / events?: Maybe

If you are willing to volunteer, how would you like to help? Would you want to participate as a partner organization, to serve on the advisory committee, or to help moderate actual sessions? Please provide details below, or any ideas you have for the conference.: At Uni social events etc - To inculcate second-year Arts students that doing courses in 3rd and 4th year to becoming an 'Information Access Professional' ('librarian' is both archaic and inappropriate now) is challenging and rewarding - its really being the guide and explorer on a new planet (called '21st Century')- With so much pseudo knowledge and partisan "information" its a tipping point in the progress (or regression) of our civilisation...But seriously... (you'd better join me up for the rest of the 4 hr monologue!)
