IFLA in Florence and Milan

I already invited everyone to join me at IFLA in August for the Web 2.0 pre-conference and the main conference in Milan. (There are a number of other good pre- and post- conferences.)
The other news is that the 2010 IFLA conference was moved today from Brisbane to Goteborg, Sweden.
My IFLA Conference posting.
The IT Section of IFLA (They’re hosting my keynote at the Web 2.0 pre-conference in Florence) newsletter arrived this week too. (link here 16 page PDF)
I’ll be in the booth in Milan and look forward to chatting with anyone over coffee or drinks about library technology and libraries in general.

    Australian librarians have taken quite a hit when it comes to conferences in 2010.
    First the Children’s Book Council cited the Global Financial Crisis as their reason for cancelling their conference.
    Now IFLA, but because we were all focusing our attention on IFLA, ALIA had already decided not to have a national conference in ’10.
    Plus the New Librarians’ Symposium is being redesigned/reconsidered so it won’t run in ’10 either.
    Still, it seems that IFLA pulling the pin on us has had some benefit. There has been a lot of talk on the social sites about what we can do to fill the gap (along with a lot of musing about what parts of an outdated conference model could be thrown out in order to make a 2010 conference bigger, brighter and easier to put together without needing a three year lead time.
