#23 Is this really the end? Or just the beginning ...

YES,

I've done it!

- I've reached my final goal just as Helen Reddy did many many years ago!

I am thrilled that I have managed to complete the program . I actually did the program at home as time was not readily available at work and also my 'cursing & swearing' was more suited to the home environment once the children were in bed!. I did confer with colleagues at work though so a "BIG THANK-YOU" to all those who offered words of advice and encouragement - you know who you are!

I found the course gave me the opportunity to learn about and access information and internet tools which I would otherwise never have known existed! Youtube was a special highlight for me as I had great fun rediscovering my childhood favourites!

My family are also thrilled that I have finished as this means 'Mum' will no longer be 'hogging' the computer!

Hopefully it is just the beginning for me at delving into the 'unknown'.

PS. I would also like to say thank-you to the coordinators of Library2.0.

It would have been a massive job for you and all your hard work is greatly appreciated.

#22 Audiobooks (or "The end is in sight ")

What a great addition to public libraries - downloadable audiobooks.

Can't say I was impressed by the titles that I came across through the links in the discovery exercise - a few too many classics for my liking. But the potential is there and I think library patrons would greatly enjoy access to such services through their local library.

I must say, I did enjoy listening to the "Tale of Peter Rabbit"

- once a Children's Librarian, always a Children's Librarian!
