Here I am in Washington, D.C. at the National Geographic Literacy and Science Seminar which is excellent with such luminaries as Nell Duke, John Guthrie, Doug Hartman etc. If you want to know more about it here is the link. I went to a wonderful dinner and talk tonight about the current exhibit of Afghan treasures at the National Art Gallery . The talk was given by the National Geographic archaeologist who catalogued these treasures saved from the wars and the Taliban and thought lost. I am definitely planning a trip to see them in person on Friday.
Before I forget, if you haven't checked out BCLCIRA's fall conference in Kelowna please do! What a great opportunity for professional development as well as a bit of wine tasting!
