Guest Blogger - Rita Godwin

I have been a bad blogger again but with good excuses (I hope!)  We held our first session for our district librarians and I have been fielding numerous excited emails from librarians who are eager to take the plunge into the genrefied library pond as well as emails from folks who attended our Common Ground session.  And, more exciting for me, my kiddo graduated from college! So allow me a proud momma moment as I gush and share a photo of him speaking at his college baccalaureate service.

Thankfully Rita Godwin, one of our attendees, was kind enough to email me a guest blog post to share with you all.  Thanks Rita!

The “Un-Dewey” training was awesome! Sandy and Kelly gave us great ideas to use to help us get started. Also, they explained the challenges they had and gave us great pointers about how to overcome those challenges. I took six pages of valuable notes to help me along the way. After the presentation, I snapped some pictures of Sandy’s beautiful library to get ideas about how to set the library up with signage and spaces. I am sold on the “Un-Deweying” process, and I can’t wait to get started!

We have another district session tonight (and hopefully another guest blogger or two) and then I will share the data that we have been sharing in our sessions.  I promise it is worth the wait.
