We're Getting Flashy! You're Getting Flashy! Everyone's Getting Flashy!
Springshare's heading to San Francisco (June 26th - 29th) and we're performing Flash Presentations at our booth on your favorite Springy Tools. Even cooler, we've tagged in a *bunch* of Springy Superstars to present at the Springshare Booth (South Hall #2738).

Presenting On: LibAnswers: Not Just for Library Answers
Do you ever get questions about non-library topics? Ship Library sure does. We reached out to offices around campus and asked them what question they most commonly (and most easily/straightforwardly) answered. We worked out a process to gather, answer, and update the questions commonly asked across campus – and, because we’re librarians, we classified the heck out of the Q&A pairs and linked to the webpages which provide more information. “One LibAnswers instance to rule them all and on the web, bind them.” (you’ll have to translate that into the Dark Tongue of Mordor yourself)
