Skip to main content. Skip to primary sidebar. Skip to secondary sidebar. Conquering the world…one book at a time. So You Want to be a Systems Librarian. Reaching Out to Students. Posted by Mandi Kaye. What do you think of libraries proactively reaching out to students in online spaces? Facebook can be used in much the same way to get the word out about what the library is doing. Libraries need to go where the students are – online. Electronic Journal of Academic and Special Librarianship, (8). RSS feeds...

Newer posts →. March 7, 2012 · 12:16 pm. Wiki as the Community Hub. The only thing I questioned while reading Chapter 5 is how a library would create the interest and confidence needed by the members of the community to post information and edit information on the wiki. From what I can gather, marketing a wiki is essential and maybe doing some workshops on how to collaborate and use the wiki would be helpful. The library wikis I found, such as the Ann Arbor Wiki. And the Roc Wiki. Filed under LIBR 246.

Sunday, September 25, 2011. RSS Feeds in Libraries. For those not yet convinced or still puzzled about Real Simple Syndication, consider that RSS removes the burden of having to do regular, static Web searching to keep current in your fields of interest. RSS allows for steady, dynamic Web content streaming into one location for your perusal, freeing up time to do other things.". Reichardt, R. Success story: RSS moves into the mainstream at the University of Alberta libraries. Library Connect,. And other ...

Summer Reading | Library technician dialog
https://brendawoa.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/summer-reading
Karen Sawatzky and Brenda Wong. From blog post June 9, 2013 by Donalyn Miller. I remember slogging through Huckleberry Finn in high school, which ruined me for Mark Twain’s work for a long time. So this time I tackled Charles Dickens with a slow, methodical plan. I chose Great Expectations carefully and opted to read it digitally in Overdrive. I own this copy, which is sourced from awesome free e-books at Project Gutenberg. And the last word goes to Miller who has a Book A Day challenge. Pokemon Go can b...

That's So Sara! Ramblings of an MLIS student. By That's so Sara. In Libr 246 Weekly Blog. How can you avoid information overload in a real-time web/streaming environment? Information overload is probably one of the biggest issues to arise with the advent of the stream form of blogging and microblogging. As a twitter user, you might follow anywhere from five to hundreds of other users who might update rarely or update multiple times an hour. These methods are best for a personal Twitter user, but for some...

Karen Sawatzky and Brenda Wong. Being Involved: CALL Conference Organizer. Over at Slate they are trying their best to whip up controversy about sappy Young Adult. Novels. Ruth Graham thinks that ” …you should feel embarrassed when what you’re reading was written for children.”. See the comment by atibamanii who is a retired librarian for a thoughtful response. To paraphrase atibamanii, a good story is a good story no matter what shelf it was found on. Subscribe in a reader. Join 433 other followers.

Karen Sawatzky and Brenda Wong. Being Involved: CALL Conference Organizer. Brenda and I have advocated often for volunteering with library associations. This year I took on my biggest opportunity yet – Program Director for the Canadian Association of Law Libraries’ annual conference. It was a huge challenge, but one I felt ready to do. The program came together nicely, although not without some pitfalls. I don’t know if it’s just librarians as a group who are not the greatest at respondin...Adding on ano...

Karen Sawatzky and Brenda Wong. What do I do? The world of school libraries is different than corporate libraries. A lot of my time is spent considering how to engage students in leisure reading, and leading into teachable moments. This week our school hosted James Leck. In an author visit. For me I learned about the publishing process and found out both Chicken Soup for the Soul and The Joy of Cooking were self-publishing success stories. (Pardon the pun.). On an unrelated note, author visits take a lot...
