Joanne are meeting with the Alberta School Library Council at the UofA today. We are thinking of you as you enjoy a long weekend before life gets really busy again.

Hi all from Berkeley and the IASL conference. Dianne, Joanne and I are checking email at the conference. We just had a wonderful breakfast meeting with Ross Todd, Ray Doiron, and Marlene Asselin chatting about things that are happening internationally and ideas for collaboration across the country. What exciting ideas.
Joanne will present our paper on public libraries/school libraries this afternoon and tomorrow we do our research paper and workshop on Web 2.0.
Last night we went to Chez Panisse and the food was fantastic and the talk even more so with Karen Bonano who is the Executive Director of IASL, Ross Todd and Marcia Mardis (who we are hoping will come to us at UofA in October as a Fulbright Senior Specialist).
The weather has been lovely and the conference location is gorgeous with lovely inner courtyard with tropical plants and a waterfall.
Next year’s conference will take place in Padua, Italy and we are hopeful that it will be virtual as well as f2f so you might all be able to register.
More soon.
