Computers in Libraries 2013 Write Up
Best quote of the conference: Great Technology is Invisible!
Last week I attended the Computers in Libraries 2013 conference. I really enjoyed the conference and think I was able to walk away with some information that I will be able to apply immediately in my work at the University of Maryland Libraries as well as in the future. For now I'll tell you which sessions I attended and provide a link to the notes that I took during the conference, but I'll try to post individual sessions over the next few weeks.
My Agenda:
If you attended the conference as well, which sessions did you enjoy? If you have a write up about it please provide a link in the comments.
Have a great day and keep smiling! :)
PS. Apologies for not being more regular with blogging (fail for New Year's Resolution #6) this semester. All of these self-directed courses for my last semester of the MLS program might not have been such a great idea.
