Hello there fine readers!

Just returned from a fantastic Annual Conference where attendance, spirits, and sales were all up! I get to speak with customers and members on a daily basis through my work with ALA Graphics, but I always find the face-to-face interactions at conference valuable. Spending time with the people we exist for to discuss libraries and literacy is rejuvenating and inspiring.

In between refilling the poster rack with additional Jonas Brothers READ Posters, I did several READ CD demos. Many people shared that they had owned the READ CD Box Set for quite some time but for one reason or another had put off using it. Well, luckily, we have a blog to remedy all that! And if you’re not getting the answers here, we can always set up a time to walk through the steps over the phone. Just send an email.

I realize that new technology can be frustrating. Being somewhat a luddite myself, I struggle with this very site! Just prior to this post I was all geared up to install the latest upgrade to WordPress–something I have been putting off for months. Once I was greeted with 3 options for install (the automatic install of which I couldn’t find); pages of instructions; and what appeared to be a foreign language, I gave up. But no one ever promoted literacy by surrendering, so in that vein–give a shout if you’re stuck in the creation of a READ poster, and I’m going to track down someone who knows a bit more (preferably a lot more) about WordPress.

Thanks to all who came to conference and stopped by the store! Hope it was a great experience for you.
