Hi and welcome to another edition of "Live from MLA." I will try and attempt to summarize and provide links to the great postings that the bloggers have been writing on the Krafty MLA Blog.

CINAHL and EBSCO : Jennifer provides us with a report from her sunrise seminar with CINAHL entitled "Full-text Journal Databases and Upgraded Versions of CINAHL".

Leadership and Professional Development Program: Rachel provides us with information on this section program which featured interesting perspectives on the job market, hiring, what employers and recruiters look for in a job candidate, and tips and tools for becoming an independent information professional.

Implementing Evidence Based Medicine: Jennifer provides us with information from Ellen Fineout-Overholt's session which discussed the AZCAEP consortium, that started in Arizona to promote the adoption of evidence-based practice across healthcare fields.

Electronic Only Please: I. Martinez provides us with information from Tracie Frederick and Vani Murthywho transformed the Dahlgren Memorial Library into a e-resources library.

Netsymposium: On her rounds exploring goodies and signing up for a chance to win a free iPod from vendors in the exhibit hall, Rachel discovers a company called Netsymposium. The company provides conference materials in the form of multimedia CD-ROMs and she wonders libraries are subscribing to this material.


That is it for now. There is a growing line behind me waiting for the computer at the Internet cafe of the conference, so I will post more about the sessions and experiences I have had so far.
