Hello from Ogallala

We have arrived at Ogallala after a long day of travel. We conducted a Go Local training at the Alliance Public Library this morning to an enthusiastic crowd of 26 public librarians and staff. The training was part of the NLA 2007 Spring Meetings. Then we hit the road, visiting Hemingford, Harrison, Mitchell, Morrill, Minatare, and Bayard. At some of the towns, we just took photos of the library, since we were able to give the brand new Go Local Nebraska posters and promotion material in person at the training in Alliance. In other towns, like Morrill and Harrison, we were able to meet the library staff members, give the materials and share the news that Go Local Nebraska has been designed for them and their community's health information needs. Other items of interest we saw today: antelope, buffalo, meadowlarks, and redwinged blackbirds. We will post the number of miles we have driven each day so far in tomorrow's entry. -Roxanne and Teri
