The “Five Books Meme” continues, with Mal Booth, NewGradLibrarian, Macaronic, and Peta climbing aboard. Then the “Add exponentially to Deborah’s to-read list” theme continues with:
- Following flexnib’s suggestion of creating a “100 articles every librarian must read” list, Kathryn Greenhill starts the ball rolling with 40 articles plus a Zotero group where we can add our own suggestions.
- Vikki Bell writes about her favourite library-and-other blogs.
- Kelly mentions some books on management/leadership in her post inspired by two different leadership styles on an episode of Masterchef.
And then there are the film reviews:
Acrystelle has been super productive this semester. Multifarious has trouble keeping in touch (oh how I can relate).
Michelle listens to what users say – with their actions. John notes that if users (in this case academics) have a chance to play with technology, they might use it.
Teresa has a dilemma with her beloved Kobo due to technical difficulties; Karina loves her iPhone. (Er, no endorsement implied by this juxtaposition. Personally I love my Pocketbook 360 despite it having no native DRM support.)
Two posts about loss: Girlwithshoes about her mother, and Ghylene about miscarriage.
Katejf and Bonito Club are knitting. Penny makes ninja bread men, Lissy makes porridge, and Corin makes cheese, sourdough bread, jam and preserves (though not, I gather, all in the same day). Tania crafts gorgeous cards. Actor-au reflects on writing fiction.
And as a final bon mot, figgles advises “Train like an athlete, get plenty of sleep.”
