Does anyone know what happened to the Blawg Republic? They’ve been down for many more than “a few weeks.”

(I like that their logo continues to say, “The Blawg Republic is Updated Hourly.” Perhaps they’re actually on Venus. That would explain it.)

Peter Scott has liked to a new(ish) library type site/blog LibGig . Claims to be a new professional networking website. Nice idea, but think they need to add some non US blogs to their reading list.

CILIP Information & Advice Team have launched a blog. “It is an informal way to offer members the chance to keep up-to-date with LIS news and information that does not fit into our ‘Weekly Information World’ and that we think you need to know now! Apart from breaking news, we will be including comments on new resources we see, such as e-journal articles, blogs, books, events etc…” Well, better late then never …

Typepad has announced BlogIt which allows you to post to multiple blogs from Facebook

Apparently CC has hired another blogger. As of Monday our Finance info peeps are to be joined by the man behind this blog . Of course, I’m not hurt at all by the fact there seem to be no mention of the overlord on his blog – some of the other contributors here, are mentioned though.

Civil Serf Blogger to face disciplinary action.

A brand new blog called Library technician dialog by Brenda W. and Karen S. who are library technicians in Canadian professional (law?) firms. I think they are both working solo. They have some great, positive thoughts.

My trawling of the interwebs continues – another post with more UK library bloggers. I’m going to eventually sort them into one nice list somewhere and continue to add to it as I find more bloggers.

Of course, I’ve not listed any of us UK law librarians yet!

I spent a couple of hours trawling Google Blogs, pulled together all the UK library blogs I could find, and listed them on my blog.

Someone, get me a life, please!!!

I love the new Library Lemonade blog. It is about “the positive power of libraries and the good work of librarians” and meant to highlight and celebrate our successes. Terrific!
