WRITING
I've written a number of articles and pieces for local and
national publications. Most of my writing is now happening
over at
Library Garden
where I blog regularly.
I also occasionally blog over at
ALA Learning, a blog that
covers training and staff development issues for
LearnRT, the Learning Round Table of the
American Library Association.
Here are some links to selected published writings.
