Welcome to Chaffee Chat!
The purpose of this blog is to practice what I preach, and bring the bi-monthly newsletter, The Toilet Paper, into the 21st century. So please be sure to check the blog every few weeks for important information regarding the library, technology, and general teaching and education tips. Ideas for the blog are always welcome, and if there are certain topics you would like me to cover or comment on, I would love your suggestions.
