Vernadsky National Scientific Library, Acquisitions Department

On Friday June 27th, I gave my last presentation at Vernadsky National Scientific Library.

During my Fulbright grant period, I was lucky enough to be invited on a regular basis to present to the acquisitions department. These lectures mostly centered on new library technologies, but also included general lectures on library trends.

During this last visit, I spoke about Web 2.0. Over the last 10 months, we have gotten to know each other and I was sad to say good bye. Of course I will not miss the commute out to Vernadsky (see picture), but hopefully the city of Kyiv will soon doing something about the construction mess they have created at Moscow Square.

Hope your last presentation went well. Maybe the next time you visit the library, the construction will be all finished!

We were so lucky to have Susan with us for about a year. Interesting and professionally useful lectures on the topics of modern library technology, discussions and different questions.. We will miss you.
