New Employee Orientation
Kudos to the Ohio Library Council for supporting Ohio libries with the New Employee Orientation resource. I picked around the overall site, but found myself lingering behind the Classification link.
I'm reminded not to take for granted that Dewey Decimal Classification is understood by its users. I will likely refer back to OCLC's DDC (love those acronyms) tutorial link in the future, so I sent it to my Delicous Bookmarks.
In fact, I fattened up my Delicious with several new sites.
Behind the Cataloging link more information about new directions for searching options by using a complimentary browser over the OPAC interface. I'm not sure I understand this completely, but would like to experience the difference between a few of the options--proprietary or OpenSource.
I like the example featuring faceted searching's drill down system--poest filtering rather than pre-filtering. It seems to help searchers zero in to the information they need more effectiely and efficiently.

"Libraries that would like to change from "old friend" to "currently-useful-friend"! I have relied on libraries through the years as my trusted friend for advice, entertainment, company, information... I like the timeless potential of this relationship. Bring on a new mantra!

I have a few questions for you, you little frog thrower...
Are you REALLY gonna stay on the ball with this whole Webolution deal? I mean, I'm not gonna follow another deadbeat who only posts once every blue moon.
My second question is: How many "n"s in "bannanna? (Hint: Less than 7)
Apple pie rules!
Do you like my new photo? I think it has a certain European flavor...
