1. Encourage attendance at workshops and conferences. Provide funding!
2. Allow everyone time to play with new technologies.
3. Let all librarians work outside of their job descriptions from time to time.
4. Realize that not all young librarians are techies or interested in technology.
5. Listen to the new librarians as much as you listen to the old timers.
6. Encourage interaction between new librarians and your user communities.
7. Allow people to fail without fear of reprisal. We all learn more from failure than we do from success.
8. Give credit where credit is due. Do not take credit for the work of others!
9. Be open to new ways of thinking.
