This blog records my progress as a participant in the 23 Things on a Stick: a Library Learning 2.0 Program. This is an independent, self-discovery course. The assignments and course materials were designed originally by Helene Blowers at the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenberg County and modified for us in Minnesota by the seven multitype multicounty library systems as part of staff development.

progress report
The thing about learning -- well a thing about learning -- is that it opens the doors and windows you know? So once the door is open - or maybe I learn how to open the doors and the windows - and maybe that's what the teacher really does - teach how to open the doors and windows or even names those things doors and windows -- anyway, once I see the door and open it and then the real -- personal, self-driven -- learning begins. Specific to Things, I am learning and seeing and opening everyday. The blog "Anokaberry" is thriving. As of this post, there are over 50 books noted and many comments received. The concept changes as it becomes itself. I used Blogger for its home, I use Google Reader to keep track of and read other similar blogs. I use LibraryThing to list all the eligible books, write reviews, rate and write private comments and communicate with other members of LibraryThing about shared titles. I use photos from Flickr and use ImageChef and other photo manipulators to add interest to Anokaberry's sidebars.
