[18:00]  Abbey Zenith: this is just a basic layout...it is still open to change, I'll talk a bit about that later.

[18:01]  Abbey Zenith: brb phone
[18:01]  Abbey Zenith: sorry
[18:01]  Abbey Zenith: back
[18:02]  Abbey Zenith: ok we'll get going - I'll keep a transcript for those who couldn't make it.
[18:02]  Abbey Zenith: As you can see we have a new layout here! It isn't a final layout, but ALA let me terraform the parcel to make it flat like everyone wanted. I added several conversation area and changed the orientation of the information boards.
[18:02]  Abbey Zenith: I also changed the archives board to give out the complete list with one click and will add each meeting to it as we go.
[18:02]  Dede Longfall: its really nice...good job abbey
[18:02]  Abbey Zenith: and we have a board that says when the next meeting is so people that find this in search or just happen by will know.
[18:02]  Abbey Zenith: thanks
[18:03]  Abbey Zenith: As far as information, we could still use:
[18:03]  Abbey Zenith: * some sort of directory of academic libraries/librarians in SL and/or colleges and universities.
[18:03]  Abbey Zenith: * updated ACRL textures, checking links, adding new
and suggestions of other things we can provide here.
[18:03]  Abbey Zenith: Robin has volunteered to help and if anyone else would like to feel free to just jump in. I'll help get you any perms you need to add info.
[18:03]  Dede Longfall: i think i 'm supposed to be helping with that ....sorry no action yet
[18:03]  Abbey Zenith: At this point we can come up with a new design for the area if you like...I don't think we can do a building, but we can add kiosks, partial walls, etc.
[18:04]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: This set-up is versatile.
[18:04]  Abbey Zenith: That's ok, we're all busy and it is hard to carve out time to do things like this... any time you or anyone can spare will be welcome when you can spare it
[18:04]  Abbey Zenith: I'm happy you can come to meetings!
[18:05]  Abbey Zenith: thanks... we don't have many prims left... but I can remove things like those tall tables and chairs, they are mostly decoration :)

[18:05]  Liatris Tidewater: Hiya

[18:14]  Liatris Tidewater: LOL
[18:14]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: Boston is 3 hours later than SLT.

[18:15]  Abbey Zenith: I'll double check before I send announcements out :) thanks for trying to keep me straight lol
[18:15]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: That's a good time to get the entire continental US, at least.
[18:15]  Abbey Zenith: yes it will be a good time for SL
[18:15]  Abbey Zenith: I hope :)
[18:15]  Dede Longfall: we're bi-coastal
[18:16]  Abbey Zenith: I have another announcement too :)
[18:16]  Abbey Zenith: Last week I met with ALA reps here in SL and Lori Bell (Lorelei Junot in SL)
[18:16]  Abbey Zenith: they are planning a Virtual Worlds Fair in conjunction with Learning TImes
[18:16]  Adra Letov: all ears
[18:16]  Dede Longfall: ooohhh
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: This event is sponsored by Alliance Virtual Library and Learning Times. It will be a fee based conference that covers virtual worlds in general, not just SL and will have speakers, tours, exhibits.
[18:17]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: wow!
[18:17]  Silhshoot Seelowe: cool!
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: Librarians will either be able to attend for free or at a reduced rate.
[18:17]  Dede Longfall: oh wow
[18:17]  Liatris Tidewater: excellent!
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: The ALA Virtual Communities and Libraries Member Interest Group will be helping with the event and it would be good publicity if we can also assist with the program.
[18:17]  Adra Letov: great!
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: ACRL gave us approval to be involved :)
[18:17]  Adra Letov: wonderful
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: This is still in the planning stage right now, so I don't have more details, but I will keep the group informed as planning begins. If someone in the group would like to assist in the planning process (go to meetings etc.)
[18:17]  Agnesa Capalini: Is that the one in Feb 2010?
[18:17]  Abbey Zenith: yes
[18:18]  Abbey Zenith: it would be fantastic. I will participate but some of the planning meetings take place during work hours when I can't attend.
[18:18]  Abbey Zenith: so if anyone has time to spare during the day for meetings just let me know..
[18:18]  Abbey Zenith: and I'll let you all know more details as I find out more too.
[18:18]  Adra Letov: no date for that yet?
[18:19]  Liatris Tidewater: do you have an idea what time of day the meetings would be?
[18:19]  Abbey Zenith: Not that I know of...
[18:19]  Abbey Zenith: Liatris, before 4 central time, but no... I can let you know when I find out. We tried to meet this week but couldn't find a good time for everyone.
[18:19]  Adra Letov: I will if I can
[18:20]  Abbey Zenith: great :) more than one can go...
[18:20]  Dede Longfall: i can try if i can learn enough to be of use
[18:20]  Agnesa Capalini: I read somewhere that the dates where Feb 17 and 18, 2010
[18:20]  Liatris Tidewater: I can do SL during work hours but I've been way busy lately :(
[18:20]  Abbey Zenith: Great Agnesa, you know more than I do about it then :)
[18:21]  Agnesa Capalini: oops sorry about the typo
[18:21]  Abbey Zenith: I know Lori and Learning Times had started the ball rolling
[18:21]  Abbey Zenith: and invited ALA to take part
[18:21]  Abbey Zenith: instead of doing a separate event that was also in the works.
[18:22]  Abbey Zenith: So I'm sure some of it is already in the works..
[18:22]  Adra Letov: makes sense, greater synergy
[18:22]  Abbey Zenith: we can think of ways we can participate and help :)
[18:22]  Liatris Tidewater: and make librarians look good? :)
[18:22]  Abbey Zenith: Always!
[18:22]  Agnesa Capalini: absolutely!
[18:23]  Dede Longfall: of course!
[18:23]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: It sounds like a good partnership for everybody.
[18:23]  Adra Letov: if they look they can see we always look good, lol
[18:23]  Abbey Zenith: It is still amazing to me that some have never even heard of SL - of course this converence will include other virtual worlds too.
[18:23]  Agnesa Capalini: and that will be interesting too
[18:23]  Adra Letov: many have never heard on my campus and in libraries here
[18:24]  Abbey Zenith: So it is a chance for us all to learn more too!
[18:24]  Dede Longfall: i've been trying to find out more about "others"! lol
[18:24]  Dede Longfall: all i kmow about it WoW from my kids...sigh
[18:24]  Abbey Zenith: I tried a couple early on, the open sims and Lively... they just didn't grab me.
[18:24]  Liatris Tidewater: same here
[18:24]  Adra Letov: me either
[18:24]  Abbey Zenith: but I'm sure there is much more out there now
[18:25]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: I am trying desperately not to get into any more worlds.
[18:25]  Abbey Zenith nods
[18:25]  Adra Letov: agrees, SL keeps me plenty busy
[18:25]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: I want to spend at least a little time in RL. :-)
[18:25]  Adra Letov: but like to know something for conversation and presentations
[18:25]  Abbey Zenith agrees 100%
[18:26]  Abbey Zenith: and that's why we are a Virtual Worlds Interest Group now instead of SL...a broader scope.
[18:26]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: Maybe Wikipedia is what I need for research on other VWs.
[18:26]  Abbey Zenith: Maybe I can learn more about those before MW so I can speak to those interests in the meeting...
[18:27]  Abbey Zenith: I've not looked there :)
[18:27]  Adra Letov: wikipedia has it all
[18:27]  Dede Longfall: no kidding
[18:27]  Abbey Zenith: Dian is going to speak to us about the research group she is in...but before that, does anyone have any questions for suggestions for me?
[18:28]  Abbey Zenith: I mean Adra!
[18:28]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: We have a few spare prims in the sim you said?
[18:28]  Adra Letov: Diane is ok too
[18:28]  Abbey Zenith: yes
[18:28]  Abbey Zenith: about 37
[18:28]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: If we get a large crowd
[18:28]  Abbey Zenith: but the tables and chairs can go :)
[18:28]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: is there a way to expand capacity quickly?
[18:28]  Abbey Zenith: the prims won't count for visitors
[18:29]  Abbey Zenith: they are handled by the sim
[18:29]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: Assuming everybody gets to sit down?
[18:29]  Abbey Zenith: the sim can take up to so many - whatever it is set for... usually 40-75
[18:29]  Liatris Tidewater: tell everyone to take off their hair, shoes and jewelry :)
[18:29]  Abbey Zenith: ah that is a different problem :)
[18:29]  Abbey Zenith: I can always remove the couches too
[18:29]  Abbey Zenith: the cushions are one prim each
[18:30]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: Maybe we could have a class on presentable one-prim avatars?
[18:30]  Abbey Zenith: we can be flexible :)
[18:30]  Abbey Zenith: is there such a thing ???? :)
[18:30]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: there are 2 of us here now
[18:30]  Liatris Tidewater hangs her head in shame
[18:30]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: Myself and Zip
[18:30]  Dede Longfall: really?
[18:31]  Zip Zlatkis: ME!
[18:31]  Abbey Zenith: one night at a party people were trying to reduce their ARC - we had a lot of bald barefoot people dancing at the Jazz Cat.
[18:31]  Dede Longfall: wow
[18:31]  Dede Longfall: that must have been a sight
[18:31]  Abbey Zenith nods
[18:31]  Agnesa Capalini: lol
[18:31]  Abbey Zenith: these are problems we can work on :)
[18:32]  Agnesa Capalini: my hair alone will get me tossed out of the place
[18:32]  LoCE99Ch8 Morpork: The hair is the hardest part.
[18:32]  Dede Longfall: bald librarians of sl has a nice ring to it
[18:32]  Abbey Zenith: hmmm this wild one of mine would too :)
[18:32]  Abbey Zenith: lol Dede
[18:33]  Agnesa Capalini: we'll just have to buy some for times when prims need to be reduced
[18:33]  Dede Longfall: well sacrifices must be made
[18:33]  Agnesa Capalini: good excuse to shop...lol
[18:33]  Abbey Zenith: :)
[18:33]  Dede Longfall: lol
[18:33]  Abbey Zenith: Any other questions?
[18:34]  Abbey Zenith: Suggestions?

[18:36]  Adra Letov: Now for the research

[18:37]  Adra Letov: Robin Mochi, Alice Burgess, Pipsqueak Fiddlesticks and I are conducting a survey to learn about academic librarians roles and activities in SL. We would really appreciate hearing from as many academic librarians who use SL, no matter how little to tell us about their experiences.
[18:37]  Adra Letov: This is a phase one survey. In phase two we will contact those who agree for an interview to expand on the responses.

[18:40]  Abbey Zenith: wow are you getting them in the groups?
[18:40]  Adra Letov: Thank you!
