What is there left to say?

I hope that I will feel the desire to update this blog now and again in the future. I'd rather not let it just sit around and dry up, but I suppose time will tell. It's hard to know if I will have any worthy insights into the relationship between the web and the library until I am actually a working professional (a part time library job doesn't quite count, I don't think).

The considerable breadth of topics covered over all of the "things" and the fact that the source from which these assignments were culled is already growing a bit stale demonstrates just how quickly the profession is moving. I am definitely not advocating a need to scramble and upend the way everything is done. Instead...patient vigilance and the willingness to change. The willingness to improve by abandoning the old and / or extraneous, the willingness to be unsure of one's self because of, you know, trying something new. And the willingness to share, both for the benefit of one's co-workers and for the profession at large. That's what I'd be advocating.

I think that does it for now.

You've been a wonderful audience, tip your waitress, etc...
