We asked Connie Crosby how her session, We Are All Shanachies, challenges prevailing thought.

My session will place podcasting squarely into a long traditional history, but hopefully give a new twist or two.  It will also be revealing some new attitudes from the library world.  I usually bring ideas I learn from social media people to librarians, and now I get to turn the tables and bring some things learned by librarians to the podcasters.

Some secondary hopes I have are to inspire other women to put themselves forward to speak in these kinds of settings, and maybe break down one or two librarian stereotypes at the same time. A tall order!

Connie will be speaking at 11:00am on Sunday, June 21 as part of the PAB09 program.
