I am sitting in a beautiful, modern auditorium on the Maine coast among approximately 55 librarians, many with laptops, who have just finished MARVEL training with Elaine Stanley and WebJunction training with Janet McKenny and Ellen Wood.  The spirit of camaraderie and collaborative learning has been outstanding.  The mutual support, the eagerness to learn, and the good humor are palatable.  Valerie Osborne’s concept for this training and the physical arrangements have been outstanding.  Thanks to all who attended for making this a very special professional development experience!
