Submitted by Rhonna (aka the Enviro-Nag) I just returned from Reference Renaissance in Denver. I learned all kinds of great things about virtual reference, library 2.0, reference with international patrons, and reference outside of the library. I'm overflowing with ideas and renewed energy. The best part, though, was the librarians themselves. It was amazing to be in a room with 500 other people who are looking at the same issues that I work with everyday at Manhattan Public Library. I also realized that librarians are really nice people. There was no posturing or politics. There was a universal feeling of "Sure this seat is open. Where are you from and what is happening at your library?" I met amazing people that confirmed my career choice. Check it out at the website and join us next time around!
