More Librar* Blogs
July 4th, 2006I just realized that I haven’t posted a list of new-to-me librar* blogs in a few weeks. Here’s what has building up in my del.icio.us account. Remember, if you have a librar* blog that you want to share, send me the URL [stevenmcohen @ gmail.com) and I’ll be happy to post it. If you’ve already sent me a link to your blog and I’ve failed to post it, send it again.
