So the big news for this Carnival post is that most of y’all were too busy eating turkey to send in submissions. So this one’ll be fairly short and sweet.
Larry Ferlazzo thought the set of tutorials from the Calgary Public Library would be pretty useful. I agree — it’s always good to show people where to find the good learning tools.
Anna Creech, the Eclectic Librarian sent in Mark Lindner’s article on DDC with this comment: “I know it’s a little old, but I found it to be an interesting read. It’s rare that something about cataloging doesn’t make my eyes glaze over, and this addresses and important issue with traditional library cataloging structures. ”
Kathryn Greenhill put in an interesting article of her own entitled “Website or Web Presence?” basically outlining how web design is very much like web marketing these days — in all its modes: promotion, understanding the user and so on.
ANd finally, Katie of the Young Librarian sends in “LibWorld: Library and Librarian Blogs of the World” by the Filipino Librarian. The biblioblogosphere definitely has a good lot of North Americans out there, it is nice to see that library blogging is catching on in other places as well.
[…] In addition to the ELL/ESL/EFL Carnival, several other good ones have recently been posted. These include the most recent Educational Technology Carnival, the Carnival of Education, and Carnival of the Infosciences. […]
