Intro

Hello, I'm Ted and I do reference work part time at Oakton Community College. I'll try not to be the world's 2nd most boring blog (ha), but I really do love libraries, and this is a great opportunity to learn the new tools.

I work full time in a high school library, and will be starting a new job in Pilsen in August. I also do some part time work at Evanston Public Library in various departments. I love the variety of the different populations and settings.

I guess it's appropriate I picked the "harbor" template for my blog. I grew up in Benton Harbor, MI - 66 miles "as the crow flies" across Lake Michigan, but a whole world away.

I will be attending the ALA conference in Anaheim this summer - really just an excuse to get away and see California, my 3rd favorite state. I'll be sure to post some things I learn at the conference.

Rich, I guess that's right - Michigan first, although I also like parts of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Florida, and other states. Heck, I just like travel in general.

Julia - also have a guilty pleasure in some episodes of South Park as well...
