PLAI- STRLC Summer Conference in Palawan

I will be joining the PLAI- STRLC Summer Conference in Palawan on April 28-30, 2010 as workshop facilitator. I'll be doing two sessions -- Storytelling at the Library and Creating Online Presence for the Library. It will be my first time in Palawan. As they say, one will never forget the first time.



If you are regular reader of this blog and you're attending the conference, don't be shy, say hi! See you there!

When One Library Is In Trouble

Here's a searing advocacy that US librarians have set up for libraries in their country.

Save Libraries is a grassroots effort to compile information about libraries in need of our support. Save Libraries will aggregate information about current advocacy efforts, archive advocacy efforts, and provide links to resources for libraries facing cuts.

This project is being run by Lori Reed and Heather Braum. We can’t do this alone and are looking for additional help creating and maintaining the content on this site.

Please email us at savelibs (at) gmail (dot) com for questions, comments, or concerns.

Please tag your Web content with savelibraries to make it easier for us to find and collect it.

Laudable efforts go to Lori Reed and Heather Braum on going online to promote the advocacy and to gather enough awareness that would eventually pave the road for this initiative to reach US Congress.
