Today was the day that had it all, great chats on the drive to/from, a library tour, an EXCELLENT keynote and brilliant engagement and discussion at the breakout sessions. A fabulous gathering of CONUL colleagues and other guests talking about Ai and Libraries, thank you @uniofgalwaylib.bsky.social
24 years in and having worked in 2 different sectors (special and academic), YES, I would recommend this profession to someone. I’d have to know them a little bit to know their preferences and personality type - it’s NOT for everyone but I enjoy it and it is a rewarding job. Get a mentor if you can.
I am looking forward to delving in to this topic at the CONUL seminar in @uniofgalwaylib.bsky.social tomorrow - what skills that librarians typically teach are most impacted by GenAI and what will we do about it? hardimanlibrary.blogspot.com/2024/11/ai-a...
@nedpotter.bsky.social here coz you said so!! Bye bye Twitter X - like you Ned I’ve found it great for a decade or more but it’s not what it used to be so time for something new for 2024 - hope to see more library chats on here
