Speaking about Librarianship at the US Embassy

The library staff at the US Embassy in Yerevan invited me to talk to a general audience of Armenian academic librarians on June 26th about the digital library era we have entered. Besides showing off the main Yale Library and Cushing/Whitney Medical Library web page and explaining the dominance of an Electronic "front door" in the US, I also showed off the usual array of tools for contemporary library outreach and reference: blogger, meebo, Elluminate vroom, Zotero, and the tool that YSMU is about to experiment with, LibGuides.
