The conference is almost over…and I’ve made several new friends, actually. Thanks, everyone, for the great comments! I appreciate knowing I’m not the only one! Fortunately, another librarian was so relieved to see someone else her age that she walked up and asked if I had plans for dinner…I had a car, and the rest, as they say, is history :^) Hopefully, it’s the start of a good friendship, as well as a good professional experience.
