It is so refreshing to hear/see the excitement of one person praising another, especially when they are sharing knowledge. Couple of cool exampeles.

A wonderful note from the Lipstick Librarian, Linda Absher, about Blake Carver, who started the collaborative weblog, LISNews, in 1999 to share knowledge about librarian and information sceince news. Today is it one of THE places for information professionals to see what’s happening in their world. Congratulations, Blake, you deserve it!

Another great note, Library Staff Sharing About Conferences, from public librarian David King talking about sharing conference knowledge — something near and dear to my heart as I plan lots of conference events. David talks about the posting of about another public librarian and frequent speaker at Information Today conferences, Michael Stephens. Not only do Michael and his colleague share what they learn at conferences about trends, issues, others’ lessons learned, and new ideas but they whittle the list of good stuff down to 6 areas, then brainstorm “on each of the six points, create a document with action items from those points, and share those with library staff!”
Thanks Dave, and way to go Michael. Maybe the next cybertour at Internet Libarian should be Sharing Conference Insights or After Action Conference Reviews!
