An aside from my real job as the director of the Elisha D. Smith Public Library in Menasha, Wisconsin:

We have won Wisconsin Library of the Year!  Our application cited the large increases in circulation we have seen this year, our increased programming for all ages, our del.icio.us links, and the way we work with our community and other organizations. 

Personally, I love the linkage of technology and service, which makes me immediately think Library 2.0.  While I definitely give my staff all of the credit for winning the award, I am so happy that at least a small piece of it was because of 2.0 and all that it offers libraries in terms of innovation and creativity. 

What a thrill to be a director with a staff of people willing to play and try new things.  What a joy to serve a community so diverse and interesting.  What an honor to be given the opportunity to lead a library this fantastic forward.  It takes one’s breath away.
