I have a great convo with my high school host librarian yesterday, and we went through some of the “what should I know going into this in just a few months stuff?!”. She was a really great sounding board and kind of my Librarian Angel this past month. Looking forward to day 3!

Thanks for reading! Yes, it is so great to talk to someone in the field who’s able to offer encouraging advice. I’ll have to remember that in a few years when I have some wisdom to offer, myself.

Wow! What a fun comment! I plan to write a blog post soon sharing how we went through the unconference planning process. It was truly a long, long labor of love. Let me know when you do your unconference so I can read more about it!

I’m so simultaneously jealous of your day and excited about what you’re doing that I could scream! Also, by the way, I’m totally going to plan a family engagement unconference at my school this summer. Inspired by your other recent post.
