I’m finding it hard to believe that 2009 ends tonight. 2010 will see volume 34 of ONLINE, the 10th year of WebSearch University, the 15th year of Search Engine Meeting, and the 12th year of Internet Librarian International. We’ve seen massive changes in the information industry and in the information professionals’ work lives over the past few years. Here’s hoping that 2010 brings a better economy, bigger budgets, and more jobs!

In January I’ll be attending both ALA Midwinter and SLA Leadership Summit and will try to blog from those venues. And I’m making a New Year’s Resolution to blog more frequently. I’m afraid I’ve been somewhat lax about that, although I have contributed to the conference blog from Information Today Inc., which covers 4 or 5 conferences each year.

Anyone with ideas about articles for ONLINE or presenting at any of the conferences, please email me (marydee@xmission.com). I’d love to hear from you in 2010!
