#11 summary

YEAAAAAH! Done

The most important thing I learned that this is all possible!!! Wow what an array of things that can be done by almost anyone if the desire is there.
Since I didn't really get into this until the last 2 weeks or so the most challenging for me was getting started. The anticipation and fear factors were huge as I didn't feel I could give this the time I needed to complete the project but what a relief and an exciting ride it has been.
I am sure BPL staff who participated are going to come up with some very innovative ways to use many of these technologies. Certainly Google docs, delicious, librarything etc have readily appropriate applications in helping the library and staff work more efficiently in the day to day operation of the job. We need to keep using our learned knowledge so that it doesn't fade away.
We are already using facebook and have video on Youtube so these won't be hard to continue especially for promotion purposes.
What a nice way to have training presented to so many by so few. It was great to progress at your own speed but yet have help just a question away.
Many thanks for the experience!!
