LOEX Conference

Librarianship is full of acronyms: OPAC, MARC, ALA, ACRL, and more. I just got back from the LOEX conference -- LOEX used to stand for Library Orientation Exchange. Now it's basically a conference for instruction librarians. I had a really great time at LOEX -- I went with four other people from University of Illinois. I met a lot of cool librarians and did a poster session:
My poster was about the online video tutorials that I've been working on: http://www.library.uiuc.edu/learn/ondemand/index.html.

Although the conference was fabulous, I was happy to get home yesterday. And I got some great news when I got home -- starting this summer semester, I'm a resident of Illinois for the purposes of tuition assessment. Yay!

It is always pleasing to become the resident of a state to pilfer from their system. When I did it here in Utah, I felt that I was betraying Idaho and I still feel that way everytime I look at my Drivers license or plates on the truck...But I sure do like it when I see my tuition cut in half!
