We are heading towards EPS and Rooms as well, it will be interesting to see how similarly or differently we use them. Thanks Leslie for the comments.

I understand your frustration re the lack of time to do all that you'd like to. There is so much out there for the library world! But, where there's a will (and money, and staff, and an organisation with a web2.0 vision, lol), there's a way. As you are probably aware, at my library we have at least four blogs, a facebook and flickr account and now two wikis, one for reader development and another for staff training. Now we've decided to change our website and are setting up Sirsidynix EPS (Rooms) which will allow us to create a new 'presence' with, hopefully, all manner of interesting things:) Our intranet is now to become a wiki for staff collaboration, so things are looking exciting for 2008!! We're very lucky to be able to do these things- and I hope you manage to find the staff/time/budget/interest/corporate vision etc... to do all you envision for your library service, one step at a time.<br/>Love reading your posts- Merry Christmas!<br/>Cheers<br/>Leslie<br/>Learning 2.0 Administrator Hi Michelle,
