Re: [LM_NET] HIT: school library blogs

[Thomas Kaun <tomkaun@GMAIL.COM>]

Hi, Pamela.
My library news blog URL is part of my signature.
I do try to update on a regular basis--not as often as I'd like--but an
attempt. One thing I still struggle with is who the audience should
be--students?, staff?, parents?, community?
Right now I'm aiming at all the above and I'm not sure it works all that
well but here it is: http://libraryleaves.blogspot.com

Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day,
something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else
would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of
unanimity.
