Greetings from sunny So Cal!

Like many others, this is my first attempt at a blog.  The course is the perfect excuse to dive right in and hopefully, at the completion of our five weeks "together," I will be sufficiently inspired to create a blog of my own!  Regardless, a little more about myself.  I am currently the Head of Library Information Services for the Occidental College Library.  I have been with Oxy for eight years; my department includes reference, interlibrary loans, bibliographic instruction, systems, and electronic resources.  I am also the campus coordinator for our Mellon Foundation librarian Recruitment Program.  I am hoping to use skills gained from this course to determine whether or not the library would benefit from a Facebook/MySpace account, a library blog, or something smaller like a unit (instruction? reference?) blog. 

Looking forward to working through the process with other neophytes!
