Hello, Friends!

 Hi, it's Kathy Meengs here. This is my inaugural post and I'm so happy to be starting this project with my classmates. 

The change I made to the blog was to add to my profile. I experimented with several other features--adding a widget or two to the crossbar--but I didn't like the results, so I undid them. But it was fun to play around with the look and navigation, and nice to know that it was so easy to undo something that I didn't like. 

I love the bookish theme that you chose, Kassandra. Perfect!

Part of the reason that I chose the topic of Presentation Tools is because I love teaching and making presentations. I have some experience. Early in my career, I taught accounting classes to MBA students for a few years. And throughout my working life, I've taught professional classes to colleagues in a number of subjects--everything from auditing procedures, to running an author event, to census enumerating. Additionally, as part of my work in publishing, I was always making presentations about a season's worth of titles--sometimes to just a buyer or bookstore owner, and other times to rooms full of booksellers or sales reps. I really hope that these experiences will help me instruct, inform, and support others in my librarianship career. I look forward to deploying the best technology to do so, and to learning from all of you. 

Cheers!


Everything can grow with the right support. :-)
