Bill Pardue is the Virtual Services Librarian at the Arlington Heights Memorial Library in Illinois. He also set up the "Answer Board Librarians" wiki at http://answerboards.wetpaint.com and coordinated the "Slam the Boards" online reference event, in which librarians make monthly visits to "answer boards" like WikiAnswers or YahooAnswers, etc. to pick up questions and promote the fact that libraries and librarians are valuable parts of the information-seeking process.
