Later Today: Presentation for Libraries: Pres4Lib

Today is the first (of many I hope) Pres4Lib conferences.

Great idea for a conference focusing on library presentation skills and sharing.

In that vein, we will be recording an episode of T is for Training as part of the conference.

Look for it next week.  Yes, there will be a regular T is for Training next Friday at 2 pm Eastern.
