Kicking off the second half of the #LIRSeminar2025 with a fantastic keynote from Ned Potter.
He states, "It's time to become ex-X" while sharing new ways to engage online, and strengthen the library community in the process.
I've created a Starter pack for Irish Libraries & Libraries. It's by no means comprehensive so please let me who I should add to it.
And let's try to build a lovely little Irish Library community like we used to have on the other place.
