@megbackus is talking to us about a library farm at her library - putting ideas into practice - etc. she is awesome!
Stephanie L. Gross, LB so u no it's real, Melissa M and 2 other people liked this
Whoa, very cool.
- Derrick
I think this is a really cool idea. I heard her talk about it a few months ago and I've been trying to figure out how we could do it. :)
- John: Clockwork Librarian
now another librarian - talking about how (and why) she started a listserv for adult literacy students to correspond with each other (back in the early days of public computer access in libraries) VERY COOL. I <3 library school.
- Marianne
The other librarian was Beverly Choltco-Devlin. She is also awesome! I am a happy person today:)
- Marianne
"Just wait til you get to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class." "Yes! I knew I went to the right school."
- Marianne
"I didn't want to decide what I would be when I grew up, so I became a librarian." (Pauline Shostack, one of our two profs, talking about how many different things she does and has done :) )
- Marianne
That's so telling. ;)
- Derrick
meg was pretty awesome. plus: bonus library dog. i didn't hear much of what beverly said ...

Meg is also into 3D printing. Have sent the CIL call for proposals to her. She would be awesome there!
- Jill Hurst-Wahl
You lucky ducks!!
- Stephanie L. Gross
A new SU iSchool student introduced herself this evening as a friend of the awesome Steve Lawson. She didn't say that she was a member of the LSW, but she must be! Glad to see that the LSW is helping to ensure that we'll have awesome librarians in the future!

That was me. Jill is graciously eliding that I told her that almost every librarian I know said, "Oh, you're going to Syracuse! Jill Hurst-Wahl teaches there! You could take a course from her! LUCKY YOU." Then she asked who these librarians were :).
- Marianne
jill--nice meeting you this evening, too .. sorry our chat was interrupted by the staff lineup :)
- henry
Henry and Marianne, nice to see you both here! (Henry, have added you to my iSchool Twitter list.)

Lots of Copies Keeps Stuff Safe
- Jill Hurst-Wahl
My understanding of Fair Use is that each actual use would need to be evaluated. So I think the repository would give staff a false sense of security. There's nothing about the repository making it fair use.
- Your Neighbor Steve
I think Steve's right on this one, creating a content repository without the licensing sounds risky from a copyright standpoint. And big warning sirens if you'd be circumventing any encryptions or DRM (i.e., ripping DVDs) on the content - fair use or no.
- Elizabeth
Yeah, real dicey. I think it would violate fair use actually. You're copying whole tracks (instead of samples) and doing it without a transformation of the work (viz, you're not being Girl Talk). Without licensing, I don't think this is doable.
- John Fink
oh yeah, IANAL either.
- John Fink
Does the library own the originals?
- Mark Kille
yeah agreeing with others its a violation of fair use to copy tracks. you'd be better off linking them open access repositories of of clips/musics that have already navigated the legal challenges, etc.
- Sir Shuping is just sir
As I understand it (IANAL), even if the library owns the material, it's still shady, since multimedia copying is only for archival purposes *and* only if the original material is degraded so as to be nearly unusable. AFAIK, you cant just rip a bunch of DVDs or CDs - even those the library legally bought.
- ωαřмaiden ☆TeamOtto☆
Preservation digital copies are allowed, but can only be used once the original degrades (and only on-site, even then). Waiting to make the copy until after the degradation is pointless. :) Ripping entire DVDs or CDs is pretty much irredeemably shady, but for individual tracks, if you bought the original, it does weigh towards fair use, because there hasn't been negative market impact. I would want it to be staff use only, though, otherwise you're cutting into the anthology market.
- Mark Kille
True about the fair replacement cost. Preservation is getting away from the question of fair use, but I'll say as my non-lawyer self that I've seen too many cases where something gets lost or damaged, and there *isn't* any way to reasonably replace it, for me to worry about making pre-emptive preservation copies of important items.
- Mark Kille
With Fair Use, you need to consider the four factors: nature of the work, nature of the use, amount, and effect on the market. And you need to consider each of those four factors with each use. I could see a real problem with nature of the work and effect on the market. I think the only way around it would be to create a repository of music that carries a Creative Commons license.
- Jill Hurst-Wahl
And such repositories exist: ccMixter, Jamendo, and Magnatune come to mind.
- N. Ansi
I'll toss this out before running off to put on sunscreen for the Wednesday hike--from some conference talk somewhere: If you had to give up your TV, your computer, or your smartphone, which would you choose? (Since we don't *have* a smartphone, I guess I'd say "TV.") Well? (I'll check back in 4 hours or so...)
Scoble, Alex Scoble liked this
I had a smartphone and gave it up a while ago so I guess now I would give up the TV
- Sir Shuping is just sir
No smartphone, so of 2 remaining choices giving up TV is an easy one. I could always watch movies on my laptop if I had to.
- Mar₭ Liŋdŋer
Smartphone.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
TV, by a mile. The computer and the smartphone can almost completely replace the TV. Not so the other direction.
- Jason Griffey
I don't have a TV or a smartphone. Please don't make me give up my computer.
- laura x
Smartphone. But, could I just give up one of our computers, and keep the others?
- Just Joe
No smartphone, so it's TV. Computer is TV anyway.
- Your Neighbor Steve
tv
- Katy S
What Laura said (though I suppose my iTouch is sort of a smartphone).
- Catherine Pellegrino
TV. I haven't turned it on since Sunday anyway, and that was just to play Wii
- ellbeecee
TV. Any show I *really* wanted to watch is probably available (somehow) online.
- caj needs a haircut
TV. It's easily replaced by computer/smartphone.
- Jandy
Maybe it should be treated as a Pick Two question. Either way, the choice for me is easy: I'd give up TV.
- Kevin L
TV
- ωαřмaiden ☆TeamOtto☆
Note: anyone who actually wants to do this and has a recent-model HDTV, I'd be happy to pay the postage to get it to me. Just a thought.
- Your Neighbor Steve
++++++++++ Steve!
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
Re: Steve - I'd like to get rid of my cable/over the air television watching - but not necessarily the 49 inch monitor that hooks up to my computer and plays my iTunes videos and, incidentally, could display TV if cable were hooked up to it. In that case, I'll be keeping my recent-model HDTV... (I know this goes against the spirit of the question, but honestly - I'd just end up getting a huge computer monitor to replace my TV, and the TV already has PC hookups in it)
- Webgoddess Needs A Drink
My computer is too small to work as an adequate TV, and I really enjoy TV, so...smartphone.
- rochelle rochelle
TV by a long shot - we don't even have cable. So we basically just use it as a large monitor. Does that even count? No matter how pathetic I pretend to feel about my smartphone dependence, it has rewarded me so well for my loyalty that I can't give it up.
- Laurelaura
I'll take Joe's smartphone.
- laura x
TV. (I don't have a smartphone, either).
- Mickey Schafer
I don't have a TV or a smartphone. And you'll pry my computer out of my cold, dead hands.
- Bill Hooker
I guess I could give up the TV. Most of the sports I'd miss, I can get streaming online.
- Julian
I gave up the TV for my smartphone and internet access a year ago. Don't regret it at all.

Yup...TV
- Jill Hurst-Wahl
No smartphone, would pick TV.
- Rachel Walden
TV. Is it considered cheating that I can get much of the content commonly viewed on TV from the computer? For our family that would be mostly Mythbusters and The Daily Show plus an occasional NOVA and Big Bang Theory.
- Peter Murray
Thanks. The only surprise, and it's a small one, is how many don't have smartphones. I would have been astonished if anybody on FF who follows me would drop their computer and keep their TV. And, incidentally, I'm not asking from an Elitist position--we *do* watch actual network TV, currently 6 shows a week/5.5 hours a week, plus old series on DVD and the weekly Blu-ray movie.
- Walt Crawford
TV. The stuff that's important to me on TV is available in other avenues - namely on my computer and probably my smart phone, if I felt like trying to figure it out.
- Laura H.
Quasi smartphone. Laura, you can have my old fashioned cell phone (makes calls and texts) and my iTouch.

AdFreak: Old Spice guy returns to say he is returning - http://adweek.blogs.com/adfreak...
Kelly, vicster, Christina Pikas and 8 other people liked this
"Isaiah Mustafa, the only Old Spice guy who doesn't need an epic mount in the form of a raven or tiger, has returned in order to announce that he's returning. This short YouTube clip of him in his iconic shower stall promises us a campaign of new advertisements which are not only educational but whose entertainment value is second to none. However, the only preview provided is a deep look into his striking brown eyes as he thinks about the new commercials. Consider me teased."

I sent it to the listserv at the iSchool - U of Maryland/College Park literally moments after I read it. It was timely for many of the students as the school here is definitely "in flux". Thanks again.

How many of us are members of our state lib assocs? If so, what's the best thing about it? If not, what would help convince you to join?
havent joined TLA yet. Was waiting on the fundage, but there's also no sort of Access Services interest group or roundtable, only instruction, tech services, etc. [Yes, I could be the one to start it, but it requires petitioning, and I'm already busy.]
- ωαřмaiden ☆TeamOtto☆
I never joined C(alifornia)LA: When I was working full-time, the graduated dues would have cost me more than ALA, and after attending a CLA conference, I was less than impressed. Now that I'm mostly retired, nothing would convince me to join--and the two conferences I've been to since then certainly didn't convince me. A shame, that: In general, I love state library conferences & associations.
- Walt Crawford
i was. but only because MPOW paid for the memberships for anyone who wanted to join. part of budget cuts was eliminating that, so i'm not anymore. i did the math, and it's cheaper to not be a member, and pay the difference between member and non-member price to attend the annual conf. which was really the only benefit to me.
- Christa
I joined NYLA a couples years back. I had some fun at the confernce this year. Mostly it's a social thing for me, makes me feel like a real librarian.
- Blake
I never was in FL, but I joined here in NC. So far I have enjoyed the workshops
- Jason (not an Argonaut)
from Android
i am not currently a NYLA member because I had a serious disagreement with the leadership of the organization about a political stand they took, and about the letter I was sent as Director of Libraries in response to my protest about their position. That situation has since resolved, but the bad taste it left in my mouth has prevented me from joining.
- Jenica
I think it varies a LOT with the state organization. When I lived in NC, a lot of my colleagues there were in NCLA and seemed to value it (I held off joining until I knew whether I was going to be in NC long-term or not). Here in Indiana, the state association, at least as evidenced by its annual conference, is VERY heavily skewed towards public & school libraries, so I haven't found...

- Catherine Pellegrino
I am a GLA member - I always tend to join my first year in a state to see who active there were. AZLA seemed to do very little - maybe they were more active for the public librarians, but I'm not sure, and MPLA (mountain plains library association) didn't seem like it hit my interests so much. I was an Academic library association of Ohio - ALAO? Yeah, that acronym looks right - but again, was kind of slow.
- ellbeecee
I've been a member of OkLA since lib school, and it's been great. There's an active academic division, so the annual conference has a good mix of public, school, and academic programming. And yes, it's great for networking--but you have to actually make an effort to be involved. In the past the divisions and round tables weren't always good about contacting people who marked themselves...

- Kirsten
I haven't joined TLA. Work probably wouldn't pay for dues, and I haven't invested the 10 minutes it would probably take me to figure out if there is anything relevant to academic/medical, or if it's more publib-focused. In short, I'm too cheap and lazy, but am willing to change. :)
- Rachel Walden
I was when I was in TN - am not in PA (yet). Not sure what it would take to get me to join... maybe a little more work support for travel? Also, everything (well... most of what) I'm doing in ALA helps out on PA issues, so I guess I'm saving the membership $ (which is not much) ? Godd question... cogitating more
- awd
I have been a Wyoming LA member for my time here because my employer paid my dues. I've never found it to be particularly helpful, although I suspect state LAs are mostly what you make them, and thus the burden of making them better probably lies on all of us.
- laura x
I'm not a NYLA member for reasons similar to Catherine's above, although I don't know much about how the conference sessions are planned and speakers are selected.
- Elizabeth Brown
I'm not. I let my membership lapse and I'm considering re-joining, mainly so I can help advocate against impending state budget cuts.
- Yvonne M
I'm a member of the New Jersey Library Association. I pay my own membership. The best thing about it is that it is local; that my work goes towards helping libraries in my state.
- Andy
I wasn't in WLA though a number of coworkers have been. I think I'm more likely to join ILA
- Hedgehog
The NYLA conference doesn't seem as focussed on academic libraries as I'd like it to be, which is why I've never bothered to join. Also, they had Pat Schroeder, then head of the AAP, as a keynote speaker in past few years. Of all the people who could inspire librarians, they pick someone who's been on the side of the copyright maximalists.
- Stephen Francoeur
I don't think I know any CLA members. I mean, I know of some, but I don't work with any of then. It seems more focused on public/school libraries, which for an academic/special librarian is not my thing. Also it's really expensive and I am already really involved in SLA.
- Georgie Bestie
I finally joined my state library association this year (NYLA). Although I had presented at several of its conferences in the past, I hadn't thought that it was really for me. However, given the statewide committees that I'm on, etc., I decided that joining would be a good thing. And I'm increasingly amazed at how active NYLA is in advocacy, training, etc.

How To Watch Tonight's Leonid Meteor Shower - http://gizmodo.com/5692739...

"Every fall, meteors bombard our skies in a symphony of light and speed. It's the Leonid meteor shower, and tonight's your last chance to experience it for twelve long months. Here's how to do it. The map above, from stardate.org, shows you the the best place to position yourself for prime meteor peeping: your best shot is facing east, towards Leo. Simple enough! But a compass will only get you so far It's all in the timing, too—prime time for spotting streaking space rocks is the hours between the moon setting and the sun rising, typically from around 3:00 am to 5:15 or so. Check here for the exact time in your area."

Really loving Medium this year. Impatiently waiting for In Treatment to start. Anything else I'm only watching because Shawn turns it on.
- Lix
I'm still watching House, Castle, and Lie to Me. Bones has been dumped from my viewing schedule. Lie to Me might bite it next. I expected House to be gone this season as well, but I find the return to character development interesting. As has been happening for years most of my television watching comes via torrents of BBC shows.
- Soup in a TARDIS
Loving America's Next Top Model and The Next Iron Chef. Losing interest (but haven't given up yet) in House, Hell's Kitchen, The Biggest Loser, and The Office. I gave up on Lie to Me and The Mentalist.
- Rochelle
Loving Fringe. The jury is still out on Stargate Universe. My wife is hooked on Chopped. I rather like it.
- MoTO Bott
Community, first and foremost. loving fringe season one, which I heard is only so so, but I'm loving it.
- Michael W. May
Whenever I can I will watch House, Lie To Me and Fringe. Newcomers: Boardwalk Empire and Bored To Death (yeah, missed the first season).
- Rene, Pro Button Pusher
Given up on The Event. I guess it might appeal to 24/Lost fans, but I don't like ending every episode of a show with more plot twists than answers. Still digging House, Lie to Me, Criminal Minds, CSI's, and L&O's. Chase is getting interesting. Undercovers could have been good, but meh.
- Rah-PM 2012
The Event, Undercovers, and Law & Order: LA are dead to me. Old favorites still going strong or stronger: Grey's Anatomy, Fringe, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Weeds. New Shows (to me) I like: Boardwalk Empire, No Ordinary Family, Hoarders. Shows I watch but don't love (anymore): Community, Criminal Minds, The Amazing Race
- Jason Toney
Interesting that people love Community. I like it enough, but I don't get what the fuss is about. I find myself watching Fringe, Modern Family, Castle, Just finished Season 4 of Dexter. Really like Breaking Bad which I just started, and I tried to like Undercovers. It didn't take.
- Derrick
I watch Community out of habit, but I don't see it as very funny. I'm still bitter that Parks and Recreation was pushed back to January.
- Georgie Bestie
Nikita has failed to grab me, and I have been disappointed in Glee so far this year.
- Alex Scrivener
I should catch up on medium... I was a devoted viewer before I dropped the dish
- Michael W. May
Fringe, Chuck, BBT, HIMYM, Community, 30 Rock are our mainstays. Eureka too, but it's on that dumbass SyFy schedule. None of the new shows really grabbed me this season, so I haven't watched much of them at all. I've watched Mike & Molly a few times, just because it's on after Two and a Half Men. I find myself laughing at it more than I want to/expect to.
- holly #ravingfangirl
Alex - I've been disappointed in Glee, too. I don't have a TV currently so it has to be on Hulu for me to catch it. What's on my radar: Modern Family, Parenthood, Castle, Boardwalk Empire (watch this over at New Beau's place on Sunday nights). Have several episodes of Fringe in my queue to watch - everytime RAP starts his live streaming commentary of Fringe I have to hide the comment & resulting thread.
- Corinne L
I like Glee: I was never a full blown Gleek, but I do know that I can like it and see some gay content on TV handled with respect and not like it's going to be the VERY SPECIAL GAY EPISODE OF SILVER SPOONS. But I've always found it a little dos muchos personally. Like Cecily, I'm waiting on Friday Night Lights.

DVRing Fringe, Stargate Universe, Caprica, Sanctuary (just started back up), and Warehouse 13 (just ended for the season). Fringe is better than I expected. The last finale pissed me off. Having seen the Santuary episodes yet that we've DVR'd, but hope it comes back better than last "season". Loved Warehouse 13! Caprica and Stargate Universe have started well.

Undercovers lost me in the pilot.

Still in: Fringe, Community, 30 Rock, House, Lie To Me, Mentalist, Amazing Race, Burn Notice, Covert Affairs, Modern Family, Cougar Town, The Glades, The Closer, Royal Pains, Eureka and Warehouse 13. New: Raising Hope, The Event and Rubicon (WATCH THIS SHOW!). Dropped: CSI, Survivor and whatever that show was called with Felicity girl and the Bluth family guy.
- AJ Kohn
Community is my only must-see. I've picked up the Office to fill in for Parks and Rec, I still like 30 Rock a lot even though it's not at its peak right now, and I'm still watching Cougar Town, Chuck, Undercovers every now and then. No Ordinary Family started strong. There's only been 3 eps of NOF so far so I don't want to ring the alarm yet, but there's a real two steps forward, one step back sort of feel with it.
- Andrew C (✓)
"Interesting that people love Community. I like it enough, but I don't get what the fuss is about." I'd say the love is because the show is as much of a contender for the fabled "live action Simpsons throne" as any show. (Other contenders: Scrubs, Arrested Development, 30 Rock, My Name is Earl.) Community doesn't use cutaway humour, but in the sense of being packed with jokes, packed with even background jokes, and still generally structured with a genuine humanity about it.
- Andrew C (✓)
Tried to watch Nikita, but after a couple episodes, stopped. Still watching The Event, but mainly because hubby wants to watch it. It feels very 24 to me, but not the good parts, the stupid parts. :-/ Nowhere near the level of Lost. Besides Undercovers, which we're still watching and really like, the rest of the shows we're watching are old favorites. We are behind on TV, though,...

Undercovers lost me after the second episode. Chuck has lost me until further notice. I was rather unimpressed with the No Ordinary Family pilot but really appreciate that they're building the characters and have hope for the show. Terriers started out strong, but I'm losing interest in it. Boardwalk Empire has been great so far. Fringe is top notch for me, and I'm loving Community.
- Jonathan Hardesty
Forgot that we're also watching Hawaii Five-0. It's light and entertaining. The problem is it's on Mondays, which is already jam-packed. I have to catch House at another time because it's on against a couple other shows already being TiVoed. Oh yeah, we also watch Outsourced. Pretty funny characters, wacky. :)

Continue to love: Bones, Chuck, The Mentalist. Continue to like: Parenthood, How I Met Your Mother, The Good Guys, Grey's Anatomy (but on DVD, a season behind). Continue to watch: Desperate Housewives. Unsure about No Ordinary Family--had dinner out time of 3rd episode and didn't choose to record it, but will try again Tuesday. Maybe.
- Walt Crawford
Fringe and Community are my two top ones by far. Still enjoying Castle and Stargate Universe. I'm behind on Caprica, Mad Men, and No Ordinary Family, but hope to catch up this week. Undercovers I haven't officially dropped yet, but I probably will soon. Chuck is the only thing I've explicitly dropped, but I'm behind enough on Nikita, Boardwalk Empire (never even started that one, though...

Anyone know if there's a way to watch Medium online? We missed the start and I can't find the episodes on Hulu, Netflix, or CBS. It seems strange that TV stations seem to go out of their way to make sure you can't watch their content.
- Todd Hoff
I watch 30 Rock, the Office, and Parenthood on Hulu. Don't have cable or I would definitely check out The Next Iron Chef. Have been watching ANTM online but it is brutal due to excessive commercials that don't stream well. I will watch Community occasionally but there have only been a few scenes that actually make me LOL - I think it is overrated. I want to start watching Mad Men but don't want to pay for it. And I need to start with Season One!
- Laura Norvig
Tried to watch Nikita, but after a couple episodes gave up. Same goes for Undercovers. Got up to ep. 4 of Hawaii-5-0 and then dumped it. Unless they really come up with something good, I guess I'll wait for Breaking Bad to return and stick with Rubicon and DHs7 for now.

The Event, and House are done for me.

I like that people mentioned Medium. I love this show, but unfortunately we didn't keep up with last season, so we haven't watched any of this season yet. I think we have 6 or so episodes to catch up on... Argh. With all the other shows we're watching, I don't know when we'll get caught up. Also, we would've been watching Mad Men, but we never got caught up with season 2! Phooey.

I know you don't want to hear this right now, but it is good that they are making you do this. My program did NOT make me learn many tech skills, like Web design or programming. I took one basic Web design class, which was helpful, but not really sufficient. Even though I know this is not the area you want to go into professional, it is good to have the foundation, if for no other reason than that you can talk intelligently to the folks in your library who are doing this work. Hang in there.

It's good to bend your brain in new and uncomfortable ways (which is essentially our job, when it comes down to it). You may or may not use this later, but it's good for you to be thinking about how these things work, since it underlies a lot of our tools. Also: do not feel bad. Programming is not easy. If it was, we'd all be in comp sci instead and making way more money. *fistbump of solidarity*

If the code doesn't work, 1) count open and closed brackets (when dealing with lots of nesting I keep track on my fingers) and 2) check for semi-colons.

Derrick, programming is a lot like writing recipes (or crochet patterns), and I know how much you love to cook. All you need to do is be able to see how this relates to what you already know and it should start clicking into place. Maybe this could help...it teaches the basics without really getting into any particular language.

Reminds me of taking "information storage and retrieval" AKA a combined version of cataloguing and reference. 25+ years later, it all makes sense to me, but not so much at the time. And I recognize it's importance. Just be patient and try to be methodical. It'll come together for you.

Events are for calendars and flyers; same thing goes for hours. Put something that up there that people won't tune out. You want people to look at it like the first glance of menu; everyone knows that you have drinks and desserts, they want to see if there is anything pops out of the menu and makes them think, "well, that would be interesting to eat."

Most folks walking in the library do not have basic info such as when you close today, where are the computers or restrooms on a piece of paper in their hand., A quick visual could save time. Also "impulse buying/attending of programs' could be cultivated with a good ad or sign on a digital display. Short 30 sec tutorials done well could also appear on the screen.
