Last week I had the privilege of attending what used to be the MEMO (Minnesota Educational Media Organization) annual fall conference and what is now called the ITEM (Information and Technology Educators of Minnesota).
It was an exhausting and very informative conference. My colleague Cathy Knutson and I spent several hours preparing for not just 1 but 2 presentations. One called "Digitivity" or appsmashing which included activities that we have been doing with our students in the media center the last 2 years. The other was "Promoting your library" . We all have been feeling the cutbacks in our programs so we were trying to show possible ways of getting the word out of the importance of libraries.
We were also able to attend some great sessions on genrifying your library, new learning spaces, makerspaces and new ebooks available. So much information in a short time.
