Pull quote: “I cannot stress enough how important it is to bring in someone from outside the library and library services when interviewing, at least for an academic library. It keeps the conversation focused on what a candidate can do for not only a library, but also the larger academic community, and it keeps the library jargon to a minimum. It also keeps me in check, lest I say something less than stellar about MPOW’s administration, not that that would ever happen.”
- Stephen le Francoeur
we used to do that and we don't anymore. will ask why.
- jambina
it was SUPER-helpful having a person from the institute the job would be serving, last search I was on. De-library-jargonification was definitely a plus.

Sure, if it's one thing academic librarians love is outside advice!
- Blake
You can't tell me what to do, Blake. *scowl*
- ellbeecee
Is Blake acting up again? I blocked that guy because he kept giving me "advice."

Fwd: For one of the myriad library conferences out there, we should get Matthew Inman of the Oatmeal to speak on copyright. He would be awesome. And just think of the handouts! (via http://friendfeed.com/librari...)
Although a hint to cut back on stuff that could be perceived as anti-woman would be nice. (I was kind of not digging what he came up with in the crusade against FunnyJunk -- though I totally dig the crusade.) Cats are fair game! So are Kodiak bears!
- RepoRat
I would be annoyed with the choice of Matthew Inman as a speaker at a library conference, for sure.

What was that one adventure race show thing that was on TV in the 90s where they had a team from NYC who were all excited and had trained in central park and said something about living in NYC makes them all strong and mighty and they will win for sure? They didn't even finish the first day of the race.

So proud of Mr. 9yo, who went with his mother today for his first demo (at headquarters of Pearson to protest the way that NY state is using our kids to field test questions for standardized tests published by Pearson).
The data/analysis from my graduate work in biology will *not* be published in an Elsevier journal (as I had feared might happen): my beloved, former PI "signed the petition ages ago" she says <3
American Pickers > Canadian Pickers. I'm not trying to be jingoistic here, people, I just call them like I see them.

Caesars < any drink ever that one would think of. Yes, even a bunch of fruit punch mixed with everclear in a garbage can and stirred with a boat oar by a frat boy.
- Sarah G.
Yeah, I don't get Caesars—wasting a perfectly good stalk of celery right there.

I'm late to the party but congratulations!

Comprehensive: adj, "Complete; including all or nearly all elements or aspects of something" .... That means you passed ALL the things, right?

Yes, we've had our little bumps, but I love the fact that I can login to FF each day and know exactly what to expect, UI-wise. :)

Pretty much what Eric said. The update that changed the tab UI to the ribbon down the left side was not very calm, either.
- Ross Miller
I loved the change to real-time, but I remember being rather put out when the service icons disappeared from the posts.

I can smooth out the few bumps - I /got/ this. :)
