  • I think the aspirations here are useful and worthwhile, but how exactly is Burning Man related to modern librarianship?

  • njoyed this great album in downloadmusic .im

  • I will spend most of my day surfing the web and watching cool videos on Youtube.

  • GORGEOUS ¡¡¡ just downloaded the full album from downloadmusic.im

  • it was probably there to encourage you to get more involved in the advancement of your library

  • You are so totally my hero that I don't even have the words.

    Don't even get me started about what constitutes scholarship in a post-copyright environment. Don't even get me started about the monopolies of the universities and the textbook publishing industries. We'll be here all week.

    March forth, comrade. March forth. And if I die in battle, may my fallen body be your stepping stone to victory.

  • This is something that librarians should pass around amongst themselves via email....but WHY was there a link to it on my college library's webpage? So glad the college's librarians spend their paychecks surfing and linking to YouTube vids.

  • The librarian is Us/ing us.

  • My advice? Do less and do it well and stop trying to be "relevant".

  • It's an institutional focus, but the institution was originally a vehicle for community aspirations around reading and empowerment. I'm reminded of the appearance 20 years ago of videos in the library. A lot of effort and attention, and worse, budget. What did it achieve? Techno-du-jour. The "librarian 2.0" crowd is the same crowd that likes "film" I think, rather than "movies". Film is the medium, movies are the result. Film is for the commentariat; movies are for the masses.
