I am happy to report that Summer 2008 is my last semester in the SLIS program at USF.

On May 9, 2008, I co-presented a “Kick up your readers’ advisory skills for kids and teens” session at the VIP Conference at the St. Pete Community College with Diane, the Homosassa Public Library youth librarian. I had never presented at a conference and it was a great experience.

Comps is coming June 9–that’s about 4 weeks from now!

August 1, 2008, I graduate from the Sunshine State Library Leadership Institute at the Florida State Library in Tallahassee. Only 3 more trips to Port Orange, FL–like I’m counting.

August 9, 2008 is graduation at USF in Tampa! Wish me luck– the next 10+ weeks will be extremely challenging for me. Hang on–I’m in for a wild ride!!
