Post Conference Blues



Post Conference Blues


It has been a couple of weeks since Interlend 2015 in Manchester and normal daily activities have been resumed. Although what is normal in the world of ILL? Now there’s a question.

Generally here at the Albert Sloman Library, normal would be processing requests for patrons, sourcing items that the BL don’t have, searching our shelves for other libraries for items….. etc However with an upgrade to our LMS which pretty much went smoothly, with the exception of a few teething problems, sadly some with ILL, the last couple of weeks have flown by. Now that everything has settled back down again, I can start going over the Conference in my mind and remember the presentations and start thinking about things I would like to implement here (where possible).

I have come back totally enthused especially after Celia and Lynn’s final presentation on ‘Lean’ing out procedures etc.. that I can’t wait to go over them again. The good news is that I soon will be able to and so will you too!

The committee’s aim is to get all the presentations up on the web site as soon as we can so that you can all have a chance to reacquaint yourselves with the conference, if you were there, and if you weren’t there, you can at least get a flavour of what the two days were like and hopefully make you want to come along next year!

Definitely something to banish the post conference blues J

Now – bring on the rest of the summer….. have a good one everyone..
Sandra
