I attended the ACURIL (Association of Caribbean University Research and Institutional Libraries) annual Conference which was held June 1-5 in Guadeloupe. This provided an excellent opportunity to network with my colleagues from the English, Dutch, French and Spanish-speaking Caribbean islands.
They were very receptive to my ideas outlined in my presentation Web 2.0, Library 2.0, Librarian 2.0 – Innovative Services for Sustainable Caribbean Libraries.
