Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending the morning at the Lansing Public Library in Illinois. I gave a presentation titled “Internet Tips and Tricks” all about being an efficient user of all the fun stuff on the web. I’d never given the presentation before so it was quite a treat! I’ll be at the Metropolitan Library System in Burr Ridge, IL on Monday giving it again if you’re around and it looks good to you 🙂 Here’s a page with a link to a PDF of the presentation and links to most of the things I mentioned: Internet Tips & Tricks.
The best part about it was getting an email from Kelly just a few hours after the presentation:
Brandi, one of the youth/Teen staff had been asking a few weeks ago how she could go about beginning to make a book trailer.
You made her day, and she already has one online and on our teen blog: http://lansinglibraryteen.blogspot.com

The NPPL is a member of the Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS) and has received great support from the WCCLS Automation team since becoming members. To increase communication between the team and members they just launched a new blog. It is password protected so unless you have a WCCLS login you won’t be able to see it. It blends in with the rest of the WCCLS and is attractive so I took some screengrabs.
One thing I really like about the setup is that once you log in with your WCCLS credentials you’re automatically logged in to the blog and all set to make comments. You have at least one subscriber to your feed!
Nice work WCCLS Automation people and I look forward to learning more about everthing going on!
