Conferences missed...

A few folks from MPOW went to conferences last week - two to PLA and one to CIL. All three came back brimming with new ideas, energized by the things they heard and the folks they interacted with. They even blogged about various and sundry.

Michael Stephens is one of the folks they were excited about hearing - and meeting, since he's coming to Minnesota to impart his wisdom in May. His blog is one of those I read faithfully. He's got really great insights into libraries and librarians, on tech stuff, and how all of this impacts how we can better serve our patrons.

I'm sorry I missed them....but on the other hand, I was delighted to have been able to travel home for a "little" brother's 40th birthday celebration. Happy Birthday, Michael!
