Librarian in Black Blog – Sarah Houghton

A woman named Penny Garrod from the UK has written an article on Ariadne entitled “Weblogs: Do They Belong in Libraries“. This article says nothing new. In fact, it doesn’t even address the issue it claims to in its title. Steven Cohen at LibraryStuff has written a good reply, but frankly, my own dissatisfaction with articles like this is that they presume to do one thing while they really do another, which is to reveal the biases and lack of education of the author. Not impressed. Anyone want to write a thoughtful and research-filled article about whether or not libraries and weblogs belong together?
