We’ve been in Santa Fe visiting my mother and enjoying a brief break. I feel like The Thing That Ate New Mexico. I don’t regret a mouthful–the shrimp diablo at Los Mayos still lingers in memory, fat fresh shrimp in a creamy chipotle-infused sauce–but The Time Has Come, The Walrus Said. So herein lie the […]

A number of bloggers are taking breaks right now, including one of my favorite literary blogs, Beatrice. I plan to take a short year-end break from Wednesday to Sunday. Library bloggers, take note: it’s good practice to announce a break, so that new readers know you haven’t give up on the blog but are just […]

BlogHer links to the Open Source Radio episode. It’s a nice perk for me, yes, but it also put the word “librarian” on the BlogHer site, hoorah! They kindly added my feed to the BlogHer blogroll, which is well worth a visit. (I had thought I had submitted my URL when I attended BlogHer this […]

Just to start an Infinite Link Project, I’m linking to Michael Stephens’ post announcing a new blog at ALA TechSource, where I’ll be blogging. This is going to be a lot of fun: Tom Peters, Jenny, Michael and I will blog on library technology from any number of angles. Free Range Librarian ain’t going anywhere. […]

I enjoyed my friend Michael Golrick’s attempt to paint out a “typical” day in his work life. I thought about doing the same, but I don’t have a typical day. Every week includes a few predictable activities, primarily reviewing the final version of the New This Week newsletter, and pressing the magic button that makes […]

I’m pouting a little bit because I had a chance to be on Open Source Radio late this afternoon (or early this evening, depending on your time zone) and I had to decline, because I would then make myself late for class, and Miss Karen Is Not Late For Class. John Battelle is going to […]
