      Great idea for getting students involved in promoting library services and resources. I'll be interested to see what kinds of capstone projects come out of this. It might give us all some new ideas.

    This month, I'll be trying out some PKM workshops such as "Get Organized", "Stay Current" and "Managing Privacy Online". I'm hoping they will be more popular than some of our database-specific workshops and it will be a good opportunity to sneak in some info-lit skills as well.

    . . . we leave out one crucial point: A membership in a professional association is not the same as being involved in professional service. Taking an active role in your professional organization is also a way to cultivate leadership skills you can't gain from volunteer or part-time work. Focus your attentions less on building a resume and more on improving libraries.

    At our last board meeting we talked about our commitment to keeping our membership and conference costs for students low enough so they can be part of a professional association. This article suggests we go one step further and have them on our committees to gain "hands-on" experiences. With this in mind, the directory committee is adding a SLIS student to our committee to give her "hands-on" experience in our association.

    "A self paced course that offers library workers the chance to build their awareness, knowledge and skills at their own pace is a fun professional development tool.  This program builds on their concept and seeks to explore the added potential of mobile devices."
