My First Post - Graduating and Blogging

I graduate May 10th (YAY!) with a Master of Science in Information Sciences from The University of Tennessee.

So, what does a new IS grad with an interest in technology do as soon as she isn't drowning in schoolwork? Attempt to blog. Yep, this is my foray into the blogosphere. We'll see how it goes. ;-)

I am fortunate to have a job that allows me the chance to learn about technology and how we are using it to "create a more educated Georgia," and I wanted a place to share what I am learning on my own and through my job. So, here we are.

But, I need a little help from my friends. I know there are many media specialists, public librarians, academic librarians, special librarians, and non-traditional librarians (and forgive me if I've left you out!) out there courageously facing this new world of tech. Many of you have learned a great deal "out in the trenches," and I want to provide a place to share your experiences as well.

So, if you want to share a great technology resource or technology tip related to education or libraries, or to discuss a technology-related issue, or brag about a technology project, please send me an email at learninglibtech@gmail.com, and I will post so everyone can learn from your experience.

And off I go, "carrying on through blind courageous ignorance" as one of my UT SIS colleagues has called it.
