For those who are able to take an extended parental leave, we will present strategies for minimizing the impact to your career and your employer. For those (particularly in the United States) who are only able to take a short leave will require different strategies. Despite different levels of preparation, all are useful exercises in succession planning and making a stronger workplace and future ability to work a flexible schedule through reviewing workloads, cross-training personnel, hiring contract replacements, and creative divisions of labor. Such preparation makes work better for everyone, kids or no kids.
==Making your digital objects embeddable around the web==

With more and more content from our digital repositories making their way into our discovery environments we quickly realize that we’re repeatedly re-inventing the wheel when it comes to creating “Viewers” for these digital objects. With various different types of viewers necessary (books, images, audio, video, geospatial data, etc) the burden of getting these viewers into various environments (topic guides, blogs, catalogs, etc) becomes exponential.
In this talk we’ll discuss how Stanford University Libraries implemented an oEmbed service to create an extensible viewer framework for all of its digital content. Using this service we’ve been able to easily integrate viewers into various discovery applications as well as make it easy for end users who discover our objects to easily embed customized versions into their own websites and blogs.
