If you attended the Fall ITEM Conference, you still have a mental image of Jennifer Lagarde, AKA Library Girl! With her red glasses and upbeat content delivery, she exuded energy and wisdom. What I found most appealing about her was her acceptance of the fact that she (and we) should be continually evolving. If we ever get to a point of feeling we know everything we need to know, it is probably time for a new job. This just isn’t the way this dynamic world works anymore!

True to form, Library Girl hearkens back to earlier book displays she had done earlier in her career, and reflects that while they may have been works of art, it is possible that they missed the mark. Do your book displays show what you value and the purpose of your work with the end user? And, do you use your book displays to connect with your end user? If not, you may be missing out!
