My Reflections on Charleston

Abstract

My reflections from Charleston: It was my first time attending, and there was so much going on and so many workshops offered that I wasn't prepared to figure out what the best course of action should be. I followed the Thread for Management (MA) and that seemed to work quite well. The vendors showcase on Wednesday was impressive. Workshops introduced new ways of publishing were introduced and one web site in particular called smashwords. Another presentation described a crowdfunding web site called un-glue-it. I came away from the Conference with a sense that all of us in Serials and Acquisitions are striving to create new workflows with our current staffing. Here is a sample of some of the workshops and presentations I attended.
