Friday Fun Thing: Beauty Without Brains

Thanks and kudos to Kristen M., a CFLC member who forwarded the following Friday Fun (and FUNNY!) Thing. If you don't have speakers, find somewhere that does, because it's mandatory in this hysterical commercial. If it doesn't play all the way through (and I'm having that problem about half the times I've tried it from the player below), click here for the original site. It's well worth it.

CFLC Chronicles: Happy New Year!

With this blogger back from a very nice long vacation out of town ("globe trotting" pix to follow soon!), the CFLC Currents blog is back from hiatus and wishing you a very Happy New Year and best wishes for 2007!

Aside from several hundred spam messages, also found in my clogged e-mail box were requests to post the following two major announcements about Florida Library Association opportunities.

Registration Desk Opportunities - Conference 2007
The Registration Subcommittee is looking for volunteers to staff the registration desk during Florida Library Association’s Annual Conference 2007. Working the Registration Desk is a wonderful networking opportunity. You will meet FLA Members from all over the State!

If you are interested in volunteering two hours of your time at the Registration Desk during Conference 2007, please email your complete contact information to Chris Barber (cbar2[at]osceola.org).

The days/dates for volunteering are:
Wednesday, April 11, 2007
Thursday, April 12, 2007
Friday, April 13, 2007
See you there!

FLA Poster Session and Roundtables
Looking for a great way to start out the New Year? Well, I’ve got the answer for you! Apply for a Poster Session or Roundtable at the 2007 FLA Annual Conference, 10-13 April. Poster Sessions and Roundtables are a great way to let the Florida library community know about your research, best practices, and the hottest topics today. Both are also great ways to network. So get started on those resolutions and apply for a Poster Session or Roundtable today. Applications are accepted until 31 January 2007.

To apply for a Poster Session go here: http://library.ucf.edu/Presentations/FLA2007/PosterSession.htm

To apply for a Roundtable go here: http://library.ucf.edu/Presentations/FLA2007/Roundtable.htm

Please direct any and all questions to Jason Martin (mjmartin[at]mail.ucf.edu).
