Thunder Talk: Reference From the Street

Brandon Weigel is entering his second year on the path to librarianship, and
enjoying it immensely.  His more unusual course projects include Street
Reference; the On-Demand Book Service, bringing reading material and
community publishing to the far north; and writing and directing an odd
short musical about cell phones.  He is particularly interested in universal
access to information and the role of libraries in developing communities.
This summer he managed a critical Web project for askOntario, and is
currently building a reference library at Bombardier Aerospace.
