Okay, the blog is up and my first post is asking people for their thoughts on any aspect of HR as it relates to libraries. 

I don't often beg on this blog but I would *really* appreciate if you help me justify the expense they went to in bringing me here by going over there and posting a few thoughts – whether it's about the good and bad of library school (I know you can do that one!), what libraries should be doing in terms of recruiting and training new librarians, what myths you've heard about the future of staffing in libraries – anything really.

If it helps inspire you, pretend this is a thread where I post that I've got my first job or my baby is born and you feel compelled to post like you never have before (remember – post over there because posting here doesn't count.) 

Also, this is a great opportunity to directly address many of the top decision makers and senior managers in the Canadian library world so why not take advantage of that? 

Thanks in advance for your help!
