Hello from Virginia!

Hello from the Shenandoah Valley in western Virginia! I am the Head of Serials and Library Management System Administration at a mid-sized university. Our university is in the process of implementing a new portal and I am among those charged with setting up the Libraries' presence within the portal. Also, we have discussed implementing several types of social software both for library staff and patron use, but none of us have had the time to investigate the possibilities. We've just begun experimenting with rss feeds. I'm hoping to have some solid ideas of how we can improve our patron service and our staff communication through blogs, wikis, etc. by the end of this course and a plan to take back to my administration.
