LibConf.com from Information Today
Check back for coverage of the Internet Librarian and Computers in Libraries conferences.
Morning! We're gearing up for today's online Taxonomy Boot Camp; lots of heavyweights but no lifting necessary. Taxo governance, ontology architecture, KM & linguistics & more. PLUS the winner of Taxonomy Practitioner of the Year Award. Book your seat here http://www.taxonomybootcamp.com/London/2022/default.aspx
Resisting temptation to add song lyrics, but this one's going to be good.
TOMORROW! Still time to grab a ticket for Bite-sized Boot Camp's (virtual) half-day of taxonomy & ontology tips, tools & techniques. Real-world case studies, advice & Q&A. Sessions recorded live so you can watch at a time to suit you. Tickets & more at https://www.taxonomybootcamp.com/London/2022/default.aspx
Great #InternetLibrarian feedback; love comments from Innovation Libr, Amanda Sweet, guide to the world of library-related Pretty Sweet Tech. "Maybe it’s because the conf was finally in person this year, but this was my favorite conference in a long time."
The recording of yesterday’s NCompass Live webinar is now available!

@dssctr & I presented “Engaging Users with VR” for @FLVirtualCampus. We used @spatialxr to explain VR & offer ideas to show it’s potential for education, esp. exploring mockups of outer space, art museums, avatar journalists, science labs, & more.
