Adventures in Cyberspace with the new Librarian!

Let the adventures begin....
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....
there was a newly graduated Librarian whose inquisitive nature and love of sci fi, led her to create this blog!

Thanks to the State Library of Queensland's initiative, "Licence 2 Test Drive", I begin this journey full of hope that I will expand my knowledge and understanding of the latest web technologies.

I believe strongly that lifelong learning is suitable for everyone. Let's face it, no one knows everything, so there is always something else to learn! Keeping up with technology is also essential in today's linked environment. As a newly graduated Librarian, keeping up with technologies is part of the job and most importantly, an exciting part!

I have not had a chance to read many blogs, but the ones I have are interesting. I see a place for them in libraries of today as a marketing tool (that is my Marketing Degree coming in to play!). Blogs as a way to interact with clients is exciting! They could provide library staff with valuable information on their clients' habits, likes, dislikes and overall provide staff with ideas for creating the best possible library service. We may like to think that libraries are about books and the staff, but I believe libraries are more importantly about the people who use them! After all, if no one used them, we would be out of the job!

Please catch up again next time for the next exciting adventure of the Cyberspace Librarian...
boldly going where more librarians are going than ever before... cyberspace and beyond!
