Why attend?

Lunch break. Blogging thru the portal of UP ITTC, here in Vidal Tan Hall. My tummy is yet full of sumptuous roasted chicken and chopsuey. Plus mango pastries. Sweet. :) Anyway, you may wonder why I am here and yes, I wonder, too. Honestly, I really thought that this would be one of those B-O-R-I-N-G, get-me-out-of-here or I-don't-want-t-go-because-I'm-still-sleepy seminars but then I was wrong. ENGK!!!

So far I am still enjoying this seminar, from with what-have-you's on the Internet to creating your own blogs and websites and even fixing faulty accounts (which I really find interesting). It is very commendable that in the advent, no it's not the advent anymore, but in the progress of technology in the 21st century, our librarians (I included) really try their best to adapt with the situation. And I think that is one of the best traits that a librarian should acquire. Being a librarian is not just being confined in the four corners of the library; it is getting out of those four corners even to your clientele's home just to reach them with your service and make them realize the importance of our profession.

Oh and by the way, the title of this seminar is "Web Technologies: Training for development of library and teaching resources" and I am more interested on the teaching resources part for it would really help my job as a school librarian.
