Dr Martin Westwell’s keynote speech on the exciting possibilities for the “future of the mind”, was, for me, one of the highlights of the conference.

Finally - time to blog!!! It's a pity that it's the last day! I will over the next few days go back and write about some of the other sessions, but issues from this one are buzzing at the moment.Lynn Connaway (OCLC)'s paper Focusing on change: connecting to both Millennials and Baby Boomers looked at the results from 2 collaborative projects she had been a part of, looking at different

I have blogged about issues from a session I chaired here, in my previous post. I have also blogged about the papers themselves on my own blog:http://information-literacy.blogspot.com/2007/06/information-literacy-from-theory-to.htmlhttp://information-literacy.blogspot.com/2007/06/appraising-il-progranmmes.htmlThis means I spent the afternoon in a computer lab (see photo) without blue light

I'm blogging the conference partly on my own blog, the Information Literacy Weblog, so I'll partly be doing posts here and partly posting links to my blog. Because I hadn't blogged for a couple of days on my own blog I've done a post there, about Malin Oglund's talk that I just attended. My post about this is at http://information-literacy.blogspot.com/2007/06/i3-conference.htmlAt the moment I
