Neat New Stuff from ALA
December 5th, 2006Via the Press Release:
“The “Librarian’s E-Library” uses tools from Google Co-Op to create a customized search engine. Librarian’s E-Library searches over 125 key information-rich web sites with the information library workers need to do their jobs better.
The ALA “Professional Tips” wiki provides a pathfinder to using the rich resources of ALA’s Web site; compiles the ALA Library’s responses to questions received from the field; and, perhaps most importantly, enables the library community to share new resources for advancing the practice of librarianship. The wiki already includes three main areas: a categorized set of articles on topics in librarianship, an ALA history timeline, and a Q & A area with links to longer articles.”
The first link above is different than the press release. I linked directly to the Customized Search engine. Total props to ALA for their continued Web work for librarians.
