Stephen Abram of SirsiDynix spoke to us about what a great time it is to be in the library profession. There are so many opportunities for us in the profession to bring in new users. We have to keep up with all the changes and innovations that effect the library and information science realm so that we can serve our patrons the best we can. Libraries are becoming a focal point in every community in the United States as not only a place where people can check out books but also a place where people can meet, learn, exchange ideas, and get expert research services. Librarians need to change from being introverts, get off their chairs, and go and ask a patron if they need any help. Being proactive is where it's at!
