Lots of discussion of tech competencies in library blogland at the moment....
Sarah Houghton-Jan (Librarian in Black) is co-teaching a webinar on core competencies for library staff on July 25th. Unfortunately I'll be staffing the reference desk at that time, but it should be well worth checking out if anyone has the time! WebJunction is a great resource, by the way. They recently produced this very useful pdf document listing a wide range of recommended competencies. I'm also going to take their free class about designing library websites this month.
Here's Emily Clasper's take on these competencies, with some great comments adding to her ideas. (Her blog, Library Revolution, is one of my favorites.)
And finally, David Lee King's work-in-progress list of basic competencies of a 2.0 librarian.
Good stuff!

Thanks for the compliment!
This is a good collection of sites; they're going on my del.icio.us bookmarks now! I'll keep them in mind when offering future tech training. Some would be very simple to teach everyone...
