Have you heard what Michael Gorman has to say about blogs? If you don't know who Michael Gorman is, he's the President-elect of the ALA (American Library Association).
Anyways, here's the link: http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA502009?display=BackTalkNews&industry=BackTalk&industryid=3767&verticalid=151&&
Sounds like Michael Gorman is judging all bloggers by the "efforts" of a few--but he (and the bloggers) are certainly entitled to their opinions. My opinion is that the blogosphere, if you look past the adolescent angst and Paris Hilton's Blackberry hack, may well turn out to be a bastion of free speech and fulfill journalistic functions sometimes co-opted in the contemporary corporate media world. Blogs might turn out to be the primary sources of the future, like the diaries and journals of the past. This blog, however, does not aspire to such lofty goals--we are just spreading the library news. Thanks for posting!
