Come to Reference Riffs ‘n Rants - London 12th Nov 09

Reference get-togethers are not just for the USA!
Our first informal reference riffs 'n rants session will be held in London on 12th November 09.
It's a chance to chat with fellow European reference professionals about the good things (riffs) and common issues (rants) for those engaged in the wonderful world of customer advocacy.
