Introducing myself

Hello everyone. I am John Crawford and I am the former director of the Scottish Information Literacy Project which had something to do with the setting up of this online community of practice. Apologies for the delay in contributing but I am currently busy finalising text for the book. I am pleased to see that so many are already blogging. In the next day or two I will be reporting on a meeting of the Welsh Information Literacy Project which I attended on January 28th from which we can learn lessons. I will also be circulating a report on our second open meeting on January 30th and as you see results are already flowing from it.

Hiya, I’m really glad I have found this info. Nowadays bloggers publish just about gossips and internet and this is really irritating. A good site with exciting content, that is what I need. Thanks for keeping this site, I will be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can’t find it.

Hello Dylan, many thanks for your kind comments on our information and digital literacy blog. We hope you might subscribe to it (as we don't publish newsletters but add blog posts instead.)
As you will have gathered we're a Community of Practice (all welcome) with members spanning all types of work place: health, education, justice, local authorities, higher education, colleges, schools, The National Library of Scotland, Scottish public libraries, charities and public bodies. Plus members who are researchers and lecturers who have been working in the IL field for decades.
As for me, I work in the Scottish Government Library and am interested in IL and digital skills in the workplace in particular. What are of work are you interested in?
Kind regards, Jenny
