I myself am a librarian from Holland, I work in the public library of Assen. One of my colleagues has asked me to investigate the use IM might have for our library. We need to find out whether or not it would be a good idea for us to start using it. After reading your article, I think IM might be interesting for us. But have you encountered any negative effects ? I noticed that it has kept you busy, and that's one of the reasons why my colleagues think it might not really work, because of all the time it will consume. Can you give some comments on that ? thank you very much ! All the best from Holland ! Jolanda, Public Library of Assen Hello Chad

I find it really interesting that some of your colleagues started using IM in their personal lives after doing it for the library. Getting educated on the job is awesome.
