In just one day I've experienced the generosity and attitude of service that comes from librarians. As a roving reporter I've been interviewing librarians from all over the state during the 2010 TLA Annual Conference. I find so many good stories about how we learn from one another and how valuable sharing information, principles, values, and hopes is for our profession. That's share-enity in a nutshell.
I only have time for two more days of the conference before my library calls me back but it is a great experience to mingle and network with people who really care about the instruction and service they provide for their patrons and communities. Maureen Sullivan, leader extraordinaire, challenged us to "lead from wherever you are". Those of us new to this profession have a real chance to put this into practice from positions that are not overtly leadership positions. This is exactly where we want to be!
