On March 14, 2007, Jim Duncan and Sharon Morris of the Colorado State Library presented a workshop at the CLiC spring workshops on the subject of keeping up with technology. The following resources were used in the workshop and available for library staff development and general use.

Great List - Thanks Sharon!

Saw this in American Libraries Direct, May 9, 2007 and just had to pass it on:

“I think it’s important to recognize our librarians, the guardians of the books that provide us with so much. I’d like to extend a sincere note of thanks to every librarian out there. Without their careful tending of the contents of the library, we would all suffer. Librarians are an invaluable resource in our pursuit of pleasure, knowledge, and understanding. Let them know you appreciate what they do. They deserve it.”

Columnist Kendal A. Rautzhan, Barre-Montpelier (Vt.) Times Argus, May 7.

Thank you Mr. Rautzhan - I couldn’t agree with you more!

The exciting news is that the new website for the Garfield County Public Library District is now up. You can see it at www.garfieldlibraries.org. I will continue to work on it for the rest of the month, changing and adding items to make it even better. Let me know what you think. I would love to hear your suggestions and comments. Thanks for your patience!
