Why blog?


Why blog?  For librarians “of a certain age," blogging isn’t usually the first item on our “to do” list.  Maybe that’s the point…to step outside our comfort zone, to meet students, current and past, in a way that’s familiar to them.  We want to share our varied views of this busy corner of the Prep world.  We’ll talk about events in and around the library, what’s new in the world of books and non-books, amusing interactions with students and teachers, or things only vaguely library-related.  We’ll even throw in some photos!   The library is the figurative and literal center of campus—we think it deserves a blog.  This is where you come in:  we’d like to find a great name for this blog.  If you submit the winning name, you will receive a semi-fabulous prize!  Intrigued?  Then, please shoot us an email with a clever, amusing, eye-catching title.  Fame and fortune could be yours!  Well, maybe that’s a bit overstated, but you get the idea…

  1. I am a librarian wannabe. I have enough hair for a bun, and I wear glasses, but I can see that those times are long over. What a triplet of resource attitude you project...I think what you're offering with this blog is revolutionary (and quite fantastic). Hoorah!

  3. As a woman beyond "a certain age," I am impressed with your risk-taking in setting up this blog. I will follow with interest.

  4. Name for your blog: Trailer Trash. Oh wait, that's no longer relevant. For old times' sake?

  5. What a great idea! Librarians are too often the unsung heroes of a school (or community). Here's to greater awareness of all the good that you do.
