Hello folks
I volunteered to blog the ALA conference for PLA and I quickly learned that I am NOT the type of person that spends 8am-5pm at the conference, then spends the evening hours blogging. I’ve been just too dern tired, honestly. But as I get the posts up on the PLA blog, I’ll link to them here – with little tempting nuggets that will make you want to read MORE!
A fabulous session I attended on Saturday, the title of which I’ve used for the title of this post here, had a great panel sharing practical (yet eye-opening for me) advice for introducing technology changes in your organization.
And here’s your nugget:
Learn only enough to get by. (What? We don’t have to learn it ALL…RIGHT NOW? I realize that this is simple common sense, but honestly I think we need to tell ourselves and our collegues this every day if necessary. Librarians are by nature “A” students, and in our attempt to be thorough and knowledgable, we are killing ourselves with unrealistic expectations.)
See the whole shebang at the PLA blog.
