Internal Blog for ACRL

“ACRL will have blogs for its Virtual National Conference, in conjunction with National Conference in April. Unfortunately, these blogs can only be read by people registered for either the virtual or regular conference, it seems. There is also no indication that there will be a permanent (and unrestricted) ACRL blog after the conference.”
Interesting. Considering that this is a virtual conference, it’s probably not a bad idea to have it only for registered users during the show. That said, I’d open it up for everyone after the conference is over. One of the aspects of blogging from a F2F conference is that those who can’t physically attend can play along at home. Not an issue here. There is no F2F.
On the other hand, a conference blog is there to bring the conference experience to those not in attendance. That’s what we used the PLA Blog for. It’s not supposed to be a replacement for the conference itself.
