For our SWKLS Tech Day our 3 techies (Charlene McGuire, Steve Andrews, and me) along with Heather Braum and Brenda Hough from NEKLS showcased 30 Tech Tips in 30 Minutes. After the session Cindi Hickey and I were chatting over email about it and thought it might be a fun session to have at the 2010 KLA Conference. But maybe have 20 tech tips in an hour more like the lightning rounds were at the Unconference and NEKLS Tech Day? We were thinking of having 20 different people doing 3 minute presos on a favorite technology or a tech tip. Anyone interested in participating in this? If so we'll start doing more planning.

I'm impressed with the defined categories & the possible broad categories. It looks like things are falling into place & we have something good to build upon. No other serious omissions- though Royce's suggestions are good additions.

A little late (ok very late), but I know you and Brenda are meeting tomorrow Cindy to go over this. Better late than never. First, I love Patti's ideas of categorizing. Fits in with an over-all idea of concepts, more than a focus on specific tools. With that said from the list,
My List: 1. blogs & rss 2. Twitter/Friendfeed/Plurk (short blasts of info) 3. Facebook/Ning (communities) 4. flickr/picasa/youtube (media sharing) 5. podcasts (audio learning -- iTunesU here?) 6. skype (online chat/webcam/phone calls) 7. Slideshare (presentation hosting) 8. del.icio.us/diggo/stumbleupon/citeulike (social bookmarking) 9. library thing/shelfari (booksharing) 10. jing/animoto (screencasting) 11. google apps: (cloud computing) 12. Interactive Maps (Google/Google Earth -- www.googlelittrips.org ??) 13. Glogster -- I know it's not on the list from the discussion, but I just discovered it on Friday, and it's a very cool site/tool: think digital posterboard!

One of the lessons learned by the folks in Minnesota is the value of mentors. After Thursday's meeting, we talked a bit about how we thought the mentors ought to be a consistent resource person for a small group of people that stayed together as a group for the whole program. Heather came up with the excellent distinction between mentor and expert, with the expert being the person who really knew a certain topic and would be the lead person for that particular thing (or twist :) ), but the mentor would be a resource for encouragement, etc. With that definition, I would volunteer to be a mentor, rather than an expert. What do you all think?

ok.. so I thought of something else. hehe. If we have mentor groups that would also be a way for people across the state to get to know each other better. I know in our part of the state we all tend to be a bit cliquey (sp??) and like to stay in our comfort zone. This would be a great way for people across the state to learn more about each other and different libraries?

I think building a good support network for those taking part in the program will be very important. Also getting support and much needed marketing from the regional systems will help convince a lot of people that a program like this has value.
I can guarantee that we can get the word out effectively through the KLA Newsletter. KLA support for a project like this might also be of value.

Reflecting on Wednesday's discussion I keep coming back to the idea of awareness vs. performing research for patrons. With new developments in technology and increased access (at users' homes and in the library) the role of librarians has shifted from doing the searching (and possibly retrieving the resources) to raising awareness of resources and services. Patrons can search the databases or internet themselves. We are in the position to raise awareness of new services, resources, and especially in the case of the internet resources we can raise awareness of indicators of quality information. While we are moving into this new role there will still be some patrons relying on us to perform services as in the past model so we will need to fill both roles to some extent. As an example, in a recent class my topic was Google Scholar. I did not need to teach the faculty how to use it (they already knew), but instead my goal was to raise awareness such as about linking to KUMC resources under library links. Essentially I see it as we are empowering users to tackle their own information needs. We can serve as a resource and support to assist with difficult searches but while assisting can continue on in the role of empowering them to build skills for future information needs… and that is exciting.

I am not sure if the notes from this session have been posted yet—so I created a separate page under discussions.
Since Library Camp Wednesday I have been thinking about the concept that Chris presented about collecting data from various libraries about book displays. I love the idea of collecting data from around the state to develop collective knowledge with the goal of evidence-based decision making. There are many areas where libraries can work together to inform our practices. With the current strained environment basing our decisions on solid evidence can help us best serve our communities. There is a tension between the urge for simplification and producing informative results relevant to the complex environment of libraries. For the project to be successful it must not become too involved for public libraries to reasonably implement. However, with oversimplification we risk methodology design flaws that could invalidate the results.
Specifically, I have been struggling with how we could determine if there is a net increase in circulation with a certain book display or a trade off? Is the patron choosing the book on the display instead of one off the shelf or in addition to what they planned? I think this is important in interpreting the results: is a specific type of book display (i.e.: with 5 books) a way to promote a certain collection or a way to increase circulation?
Other thoughts??? Or topics where we could come together with other experiments to build evidence for our decision making? I think this is an intriguing topic. I am curious about what others have to say?

There are many drug rehab and alcohol treatment programs that provide services for adults as well as teenagers in Kansas. Many people think that it is easy to find a good alcohol treatment center, drug treatment center, or any addiction treatment center in Kansas. While there are many different drug abuse rehabilitation and alcohol rehab clinics in Kansas, it is not always easy to find one that’s best suited for each individual. Some Kansas drug treatment centers do not have a drug detox program but instead refer you to an out patient program for your particular addiction recovery. The most crucial point of a rehab program is to discuss this everything in depth with the intake staff. This can make a dramatic difference in how effective the addiction treatment is. Another important thing about drug treatment centers and alcohol rehabs located in Kansas is that some specialize in the treatment of certain types of addicts; for example rehab clinics specializing in dual diagnosis treatment or rehab clinics that specialize in treating the LGBT community.
