23 Things I Learned from "23 Things Kansas"

I feel my words would best be expressed in a google docs/slideshow monologue (that is my Mary Catherine Gallagher SNL reference. You're welcome ;) )

Week 16: Wrap Up Webinars and Final Posting

I listened to the evening session of the wrap-up webinar. It was interesting to hear comments from others who did the program. Also cool to hear one of my new co-workers, Cathy Newland, mentioned! Yay Cathy!

Week 15: Wikis

For Activity #1 I chose to add a blurb about the Coffey County Library to the Burlington, KS wiki page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burlington,_Kansas#Library

I had a little trouble figuring out how to add a picture of the library to the page. I decided to forgo that option.

I'm not sure if this is a tool I would ever really use. It's a little out of my comfort zone and not sure it could be used at our library or in my personal life. It was nice to be able to add a little info about the library to the page.

Here is my entry on the 23 Things Wiki:

Week 14: Library Thing, etc.

Whew! I am finally getting caught up. Summer Reading crept up and distracted me there for a minute. For this week I chose to try out Goodreads. My cousin has been trying to get me to join for a few weeks, so it worked out well that this was our lesson. She got lucky ;) lol

I think I am really going to enjoy this site actually. I have added several books I enjoy to my bookshelf and have already received several suggestions. One of them I requested through ILL. I will let you know if it turns out to be a "Good Read."

*I have added a widget to my blog that allows you to see my bookshelf :)
