discussion series is being revived after a short hiatus. It will be held at
least once per month in Second Life. Transcripts will be available for those
that cannot attend or do not participate in Second Life (SL).

will discuss his role as a "college-based" librarian in the School of
Engineering. He will also talk about the new roles the library has taken in
outreach and integration into various roles at the university, including
partnerships related to research areas defined by the university's strategic
plan. He is a also the webmaster for LLAMA and teaches web 2.0 and
technology courses for Kent State University School of Library & Information

If you want to be a speaker in the future, please let me know. we are
