What’s more exciting than Titus Andronicus playing the Pitchfork Music Festival or the Bears acquiring Julius Peppers, or (I guess) the Chiefs trying to get Darren Sproles?
Not much: this is a cap-free year! But if you’re a librarian, any good book that makes us look awesome is worth promoting.
Enter This Book is Overdue! How Librarians and Cybrarians can Save Us All. First admission, I hate the term “cybrarian”. That being said, this book argues that even though you may think Google and the Internet are killing the notion of a useful librarian, editor Marilyn Johnson shows all of the cool stuff librarians are still doing. From digital archiving to, what the Amazon review calls “curators of a community legacy.”
So if you dig it, you could check out this book. For a shortcut to what we’re doing, check out some of the library links here.
