These questions came via email, from yesterday's webinar:

Stephen Grubb says, "How did you choose the patrons for your meetings?

Our Marketing Manager picked them - she sent out invitations to people she thought would care about how the redesign looked, and communications types. it worked well - we ended up with a good mix of people - young/old, tech savvy and not, etc.

suzanne carbone says, "Are you aware of a virtual services or digital librarian list serv?"

Not really... though I suppose this is one!

Cindy says, "who was included in your committee?"

About 12 staff members - frontline staff and managers, public services and techie staff, MLS and paraprofessionals.

Debra says, "what is pod camp?" - who is it for?

A PodCamp is a type of unconference focused on social media tools - podcasting, video, facebook, twitter, blogs, etc. Being an unconference, you don't plan any agenda up-front. Instead, you show up that morning, pick the topics, then go chat together about those topics. In our case, it's for people in the NE Kansas/MO area who are interested in social media.
