Due to a few issues I’m having with my wifi connection in my hotel, I haven’t been able to post nearly as often as I’d intended. Ah, technology. It is wonderful and blissful, and then it doesn’t work. But then it does so here we go now. Friday night, the librarians from the Chattylibrarians list gathered at the Rock Bottom Brewery. Some of us were meeting in person for the first time; it is always fun to meet people in person that you have only known as an online personna before. We took up five (or six?) tables at one point. The most fun was the fact that not only did some Nexgen and LU members join us, but a few people arrived having seen the event posted on the Chicago ALA Wiki. Its an amazing feeling to be a librarian on the forefront of these new ways of sharing information… and for getting in touch with other librarians, in order to share thoughts and ideas. Or just a pint or two.
