12 Blogs of TLT: Terrible Trivium

If you haven’t noticed my intellectual crush on Anne Ursu by now, you haven’t been paying attention. Terrible Trivium is Anne Ursu’s Tumblr account and it is a resource for an amazing amount of thoughtful critique on issues that are close to my heart, including literature for children of all ages, book publishing, and many […]

12 Blogs (or not) of 2014: Two Bossy Dames

Every so often, something so wonderful, so amazing, comes along that we have to include it in a 12 Blogs post, even though it’s not technically a blog.

12 Blogs of 2014: A Chair, A Fireplace, & A Tea Cozy

As Karen, Robin, Amanda, and I were deciding which blogs each of us was going to highlight this year, I looked back over the list from years past and realized that we’d not yet talked about Liz Burns’ broadly useful, always thoughtful A Chair, A Fireplace, & A Tea Cozy. Maybe it’s because we figured […]

December 8, 2014 by Heather Booth

Truth be told, I’m not an avid blog reader. Since the demise of Google Reader, I’ve not devoted much time to finding a new tool to help me organize and track my blog reading. The blogs I do read belong to those people who I can count on to get me thinking and give me […]

December 23, 2013 by Karen Jensen, MLS

Blog #8: Women Write About Comics (Seriously, a lot) I adore comics. I mean, seriously love them.

12 Blogs of Christmas: Justin the Librarian

December 23, 2013 by Karen Jensen, MLS

Blog #7: Justin the Librarian I love reading about all the wonderful, inventive stuff other libraries are doing, and dreaming about what I could do if I had their money.
