Ego-a-go-go
Renee S., who graduated last term, is now in China setting up a brand-new school library from scratch. Her blog ruminations on her experiences and struggles are always well-written and often hilarious. I'm not sure if I should take issue with this recent post though – I think she's comparing me to Paris Hilton!“For Canadian […]
Friday Fun Link – 100 Year Old Is Poster Boy For Literacy (October 20, 2006)
A 100-year man from Huntsville, Ontario, who only learned to read at age 93, is being called a “poster boy for literacy.” “In an emotional acceptance speech, after which he received a standing ovation, Brazier said he decided to learn to read after his wife of 64 years died. She had read everything to him.” […]
Return of the MLIS Coffee House
Got this from Iona Henderson and wanted to pass it along as a way to encourage people to participate. The Coffee House was a lot of fun last semester (the picture of Linda from my “Rock Star Librarian” post was taken at the Coffee House) plus your attendance helps support Student Council financially. — Hey […]
Rock Star Librarian
The Library Association of Alberta did a calendar a few years back featuring photos of librarians doing their non-work hobbies – riding motorcycles, belly-dancing, mountain climbing, etc. We had some brief chats about doing something similar here – either for my cohort or for the whole program via Student Council. I don't think anything ever […]
Ways That Little London Is Like Big London
It rains all the time. (Sorry, but that's all I've got here…)
Art Slade and Maggie Wood at FIMS Next Monday
Funny story. After my “Public Libraries in the Community” class today, my group met because we have to come up with a business plan proposal for a new “for fee” service for a library. We were sort of struggling to come up with an idea as most of us were thinking “libraries = free” (I […]
How Good Is This Liberal Leadership Debate?
Man, when I was a kid and Question Period came on, I used to practically cry. But this afternoon, I'm watching Michael Ignatieff spar with Bob Rae (they were roommates in college), watching Scott Brison (one of Canada's few openly gay MP's) say that if he didn't support gay marriage, it would cause a “gay […]
Digg, Ya Hear?
Alright, continuing my attempts to learn more about the top Internet technologies and how they work, not just as a visitor but as an active user, I've decided to follow-up my “add a page to Wikipedia” experiment by submitting a post I did on “Five Things Google Could Learn From Wikipedia (and Five Things Wikipedia […]
Some Time Wasters, a Centre of the Universe Story, and My List of London Regrets
Came across The Birthday Calculator which tells you your date of conception, how many days, weeks, months and years old you are (you probably know that one) on Ian's blog via an embedded Digg link that displayed on his site because he was using Feed2JavaScript, a neat little utility that allows you to embed RSS […]
