Day two at Library Camp
I'm in day two of library camp today. The format is different today -- we're in more of conference mode than unconference. The two speakers both covered collection development topics; the first speaker covered the theoretical side of things while the afternoon speaker focused on the practical, nuts-and-bolts elements of actual weeding and acquisition practices. Also, preferences for breakout sessions are more pronounced -- this morning, two session choices had only 1-2 attendees, while everyone else migrated to the other two "hot topics." It seems that I don't have my finger on the pulse of what's hot in libraries today -- the sessions I was most interested in were the empty ones!
Although I certainly learned a lot from the speakers today, I really loved the discussion and conversation sparked within the unconference sessions yesterday.
P.S. The Holiday Inn's food was EXCELLENT.
