I think it has valuable information for everyone in the library. I know many staff who started but haven't finished. I will try to encourage staff to keep plugging away! I will keep blogging - and will work on getting better at these new found skills!Kathy Rushhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16358725521844455516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4356602104441366086.post-25138690932357440462008-09-11T12:58:00.000-07:002008-09-11T13:00:19.980-07:00#23 Staying CurrentThis is a tough one with all that I have to do at work each day. I do think a lot of things I have learned - like adding RSS Feeds - will help me stay current. Work/social networks can be very helpful also.
