| Web page design needed more time | |||||||||
| RCPL did a fantastic job of hosting | |||||||||
| Some sessions needed to be longer - netlibrary, | |||||||||
| Upstairs room was noisy | |||||||||
| Excellent conference - small "bugs" to work out. Sturgis offered to host in 2007 | |||||||||
| Very hospitable and friendly, useful topics and great timing for event. The annual conference draws all librarians together, but often times, not all libraries are able to go. This allows everyone an affordable, local "mini conference". I saw lots of new faces! | |||||||||
| Perhaps fewer sessions so each could be attended | |||||||||
| Fantastic. RCP staff did a great job! | |||||||||
| Good lunch - versatile presenters - volunteer presenters should have stood up | |||||||||
| This was very well organized, nice people at RCPL. Great job! | |||||||||
| Very well organized - great staff - good workers | |||||||||
| Wonderful hospitality - Thanks | |||||||||
| Troubleshooting could have been longer | |||||||||
| nice to be invited | |||||||||
| The lunch was great. Thank you to our hosts | |||||||||
| Library issues update was especially good | |||||||||
| A list of questions (topic sentences) would have been helpful to me to prepare for the session | |||||||||
| I found out about this forum thru a forward from the Nebraska Library Org. that Ed Hughes sent. | |||||||||
| Thank you for including out of state libraries. It makes so much sense to share ideas in our area and I would certainly attend another in the fall! | |||||||||
| Lunch - captive - great idea! I didn't have to go out to find a place to eat then new parking and on time for the 1:00 session. | |||||||||
