You share stories of what you’ve been doing at your branch. Or you ask a question or make a request. Often these conversations happen in passing, but however they happen, they’re very influential.</p><p>We pass these ideas on to others, use them as inspiration for new or revised events and Level-Up Labs, and everything in between. Often informal, they’re an important part of community building. We want to hear from you more.</p><h2 id="rollblogroll">Baking up a blog roll</h2><p>There are lots of librarians and library staff who write their own blogs, keep library-related Pinterest boards, tweet or share in other ways online. Reveal yourselves! We want to learn from you and help connect you to each other. So we’re building a page of links to your pages–a good old-fashioned blog roll.</p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;" data-mce-style="font-weight: bold;">To add your site to our blog roll, simply respond to this email with a few details</span>:</p><ul><li>Your name (i.e. Ender Wiggin)</li><li>Your page’s main address (i.e. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ansible.net/~third" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.ansible.net/~third">http://www.ansible.net/~third</a>)</li><li>A brief description or category (i.e. video/war games)</li></ul><p>We’ll organize your links as they come in and hope to post the page soon. (We’ll announce the address in an upcoming email.) <br>We hope to hear from you!</p><ul><li>Nathan Swartzendruber, SWON Technology Educator</li></ul><hr><h2 id="networkingnocablesrequired">Networking (no cables required)</h2><p>At SWON’s upcoming Fall Luncheon, we take networking seriously. That’s because people who have attended past Luncheons have told us how valuable those conversations have been. Having participated, we certainly agree.</p><p>Since the Luncheon is followed by SWON’s Membership Meeting (an update on SWON that’s open to everyone), lots of <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/?executive_board" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://swonlibraries.org/?executive_board">SWON board members</a> will be there. They bring great ideas and great energy with them. Join us for some great conversations and some interesting talks on maker spaces in libraries.
