Today there was a discussion in Second Life, the virtual world, in which I gave a brief report about the meeting I attended in Madrid, and Ishbel Hartmann (Vickie Cormie in RL) gave a brief report on Internet Librarian International, which also took place last week, highlighting a few presentations she had found particularly interesting. That is her in the first photo (and yes, that is a virtual squirrel by her feet, but I have now relocated it to the SL island)The full transcripts are online. The one for the discussion about the Madrid meeting is at http://sleeds.org/chatlog/?c=144 and the one about sessions at Internet Librarian International is at http://sleeds.org/chatlog/?c=145 I am Sheila Yoshikawa in these chats, of course.
There were notecards for each of these sessions, which you can pick up in Second Life if you visit the CILR office. I have given the web references of the ppts from Vickie's notecard, below:
