Thanks for another great conference, #CILConnect! I hope I'll see you all next year - in the meantime, can't wait to put into action everything I learned!

"The concept of truth dies a death by a thousand cuts and we've entered a post-modernist truth hellscape where all realities are equally real and the truth has no meaning outside of people's lived experiences and what they FEEL to be accurate." oof😵‍💫#CILConnect #DeepFakes

@srmaclin My mug today isn't particularly fun, but it does match the plate, which is a rarity in this house!

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin @lrainie It's always interesting, and for me a very good reality check for where I'm spending my time on social media :)

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Last session of the day - luckily it's @lrainie so time is sure to fly! Bring on the data. #CILConnect

Looking forward to this Demystifying Copyright session since I somehow became my library's go-to person for copyright questions. "Other duties as assigned" right? 😅#CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Got excited for a second when @aeolussurf said DPLA had figured out a deal with Amazon... but it doesn't include Audible Exclusives, the bane of my existence and the reason for way too much time spent explaining to patrons why we can't get that audiobook they want😑#CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin @englishteastore @plumdeluxe I would certainly be interested in that! I'm always looking for new tea sources!

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin Ain't that always the way! At least we can watch the recordings later!

[Robin @birdbrarian]

I feel energized after that keynote! Which is good because I'm heading to a double session next💪 #CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Also this is the most active chat (on the pheedloop platform) I've seen in a session yet this year. I have as many notes on that as I have from the keynote itself! #CILConnect

"Libraries are public infrastructure ... We should never have a library that is not connected, no matter where you are." - Nicol Turner Lee #CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Not my first time hearing Nicol Turner Lee and she is always engaging and energizing! Thanks for waking my brain up this morning! #CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin lol SAME

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin Agree! And the mug is from artist spiffy-keen on Redbubble! https://t.co/PTNtSlkzL1
Today's relative state of awakeness is brought to me by blackforest tea from @englishteastore : https://t.co/DJC0y3BAFw (As long as we're sharing our sources lol)

[Robin @birdbrarian]

@srmaclin I'm awake I swear #CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Loving all the sketches in @mjdelia's slides (in D102). Obviously that visual communication skill building project he's talking about paid off! #CILConnect

[Robin @birdbrarian]

Eyeing this Guest Picks thing Rappahannock Regional Library is doing https://t.co/QU6EHkEmtX👀Might have to steal that lol #CILConnect
