I selected this year's theme - New Possibilities and Partnerships - because it highlights opportunities for improving and introducing new and better products and services. It reflects a positive approach to working within exciting but challenging times. Of course, libraries have always been on the lookout for new possibilities and partnerships. We eagerly adopt new ideas, technologies, services and programs if they show promise to improve our patrons' experiences. Today's rapidly developing technology and an urgent need to provide services effectively and efficiently are driving us to employ creative solutions more than ever. Many of us remember moving from card to online catalogs and now to discovery tools. And once information became digital we developed new ways of moving it and sharing it using systems often introduced and supported by new partnerships with national library networks, statewide cooperatives and local multitype library consortia. Once libraries were a place of quiet, now we've added social areas with no expectation of studying or reading. Today's libraries are looking for new and better ways to meet the living, learning, recreational, business and social needs of the born digital, as well as the newly tech literate. It is our challenge to work together to keep libraries vibrant and vital. We must be sure our libraries are relevant to all and we must find ways of doing this that are realistic but exciting. Whether it's taking our libraries mobile, keeping public libraries public, support-ing egov services, making ebooks easy, working with vendors on new pricing models, or totally rethinking our service delivery and staffing modes - there is no better time to focus on new perspectives, possibilities and partnerships.

Leadership/Management Spectrum

Kevin Griffith, Libraries Administrator at the Pasco County Library System presents a management workshop to help library leaders and those who want to take on that role to identify their leadership and management preferences. Kevin has presented this workshop for three years in Pasco County as part of the County’s Leadership Development Program and in quarterly supervisors’ meetings. His workshops and presentations received rave reviews from participants. The first portion of the workshop explores the idea that each of us has a set of personal preferences and natural abilities that pull us towards leadership or management. Participants discover their individual prefer-ences on the leadership/management spectrum and then learn the functional differences between leadership and management. The second portion of the workshop explores emotional intelligence. Participants learn the nature and history of emotional intelligence and its value in relation to leadership and management. The workshop leader and participants dig a little deeper into how we are hard-wired for emotions through our “emotional thermostat” and mirror neurons and how these key elements affect our interactions and choices. Mid-afternoon refreshments will be served.

Registration Fee: $25.00 Register online or on paper through the conference registration process (whether you are attending the rest of the conference or not) at http://www.flalib.org/conference_2013.php. Only fifty seats are available so register early.
