Tame the Web: Libraries and Technology: Twelve Things I Learned at Internet Librarian 2004

This is a very good wrap-up post from the 2004 Internet Librarian conference.

Excerpt:
"As evidenced by the great group of people in our Make Learning Stick: Creating 5-Star, User-Centered Training & Instruction workshop, library folk are embracing their new roles as trainers and teachers.They had great questions and all participated. Scott Brandt gets this stuff and can explain it well. Instructional design for librarians is HOT right now. Are you developing classes? Are you teaching colleagues? You soon could be!"

No matter what new tools and gadgets and search things (like Google Scholar) come along we will always be needed to teach and train our users and colleagues. Working to design instructional sessions and presenting them is something that isn't going to go away.

There's a cool page of presentation links on the Internet Librarian site as well.
