1. Innovation is more than tech
2. Be willing to do what’s right for the organization and the profession
3. You can’t communicate too much
4. Accept the fact that libraries are going to look very different in the future
5. This is an opportunity! - to learn -to grow -to adapt -to improve -let go of what’s not working
