ALIA Information Online Conference

I've just got back from the ALIA Information Online Conference in Sydney and really enjoyed it.

My own website blog has a few posts from the venue with some thoughts etc.

I will try to add more there and add to the Flickr group with the photos I took while over there.

Meredith Farkas speaking to Building Academic Library 2.0

This is a video of a keynote address Meredith Farkas gave to a conference at UC Berkeley. It is 70 minutes long but skip the first 13 or so minutes as it is just introductions. The link is at: Building Academic Library 2.0
In it she discusses a definition of library 2.0 and then gives some great tips for using web 2.0 in libraries. There are some really good ideas that are practical and doable.

I'll never be out of a
