Carolyn's CIL 2007 Itinerary (Subject to Change)

 

I am the Training Services Coordinator for Cumberland County Library System, and a Reference Librarian at the Joseph T. Simpson Public Library in Mechanicsburg (because I don't have enough fun being a librarian by day...I have to do it nights and weekends, too!) 

 

My only moment of fame was being labeled the "beer-drinking, bird-watching librarian" by Michael Feldman - that particular night out was after a migration to Horizon.  When I'm not working, I'm a microbrew-enthusiast and citizen scientist.

 

When I find time to sit down, I blog here and there (and some other places, too), I maintain a wiki (or at least I did for awhile)...I get my fingers in a little of everything technology-related at my library, and am very excited about my first CIL!

 

My sessions below are in order of appearance in the preliminary program - not in order of preference to attend...there is so much of interest, I had a hard time narrowing it down!

 

 

Sunday

 

Arriving in town late - visiting friends on the way, and staying with family.
