new in the biblioblogio: great moments in librarianship
Great Moments in Librarianship is sort of a more selective ref grunt.
Great Moments in Librarianship is sort of a more selective ref grunt.
If I don't make this short, I'll never get around to creating this post. I want to welcome to the world two new blogs:
Marginal Mormon Literature by librarian Julie Turley
and
Two Story Sketchbook by Marissa Falco and Sarah Coyne
I probably can't talk about this book without spoilering it, so proceed with caution, especially Danna, to whom I am going to mail it as soon as it's safe to go back to the post office. (i.e. after Santamas)
The first back of the book blurb likens the title character to a 21st century Lolita, but I think she's more similar to a blogging Go Ask Alice.

Welcome to the biblioblogosphere Pumped Librarian Nicole Pagowsky!
I know Nicole from zines and from Radical Reference, where she jumped in right away and started answering questions while in library school. She's got a temp job right now, folks, so you've still got a chance to hire before she gets snapped up by someone else!
Columbia University cataloger Alexandra Crosier has launched a local library events blog, Shelved @ NYC.
Alex provides annotated listings of NYC library news, events, and politics.
Someone posted the link to the Stuff White People Like blog to the NYC Anarchists discussion list. This blog is apt, cruel, and hilarious.
I just noticed that my friend Laura Quilter is blogging, with the creative and appropriate name, "derivative work." Laura is a librarian turned fair use lawyer, and also an expert is feminist science fiction, btw. A post I thought y'all might enjoy is called "The Republican Shuffle." She's gathered information about Republican sex deniers and their sex scandals.
This is another link from my friend Susan--Print Fetish blog. Yum! ...
