Roy Tennant's latest digital libraries column is on keeping current:
"Let's acknowledge that it takes time, effort, and commitment to keep current. Depending on your "tech" comfort level, it may involve a good deal of tolerance as well. But if you want to use current information technologies fully to address the problems and opportunities that your library faces, then you must quit complaining and lock and load."
Great quote!! I'll be sure to use it during my presentations!! LISFeeds gets a mention, which is appreciated. I can't resist posting one more quote:
"Accept that change is constant, and constant learning is the only reasonable response. Gone are the days (if they ever existed) when everything you need to know about being a librarian could be learned in library school. Learn to thrive on change. Anticipate it, smell it out, and chase after it. If you do this well enough, instead of being the victim of change, you will be its agent. And you will be able to mold change to serve your public better."
YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Change is good.
