Reading The Big Switch by Nicholas Carr. He gives props to his local library, Gleason Public Library in Carlisle, MA. Why do they still carry Rosetta Stone, when so many libraries were cut-off from this resource? BTW, have you already provided a rating for Open Worldcat?

Italian blog whose aim is to involve in library related discussion non only professionals but also library users. The blog pays thus great interest in services to the public, relation among libraries and users, users rights. There is also interest for library technologies, web 2.0 and free software.

This blog was born in Liguria (NW Italy), thus it has a certain specific attention to that territory, but such attention is in no way exclusive and all library related themes can be discussed. Users from all over the world are welcome, and posts or comments in langueges other than Italian are allowed, though Italian is the main language of the blog.

LibrarySupportStaff.org is written with support staff in mind, but is in actuality a collection of links, musings, and commentary about libraries and "library-land" in general.

Written by a self-professed library geek, there is a fair amount of ooh-ing and ahh-ing about tech trends and new ways of merging technology and librarianship.
