Bloggerful Libraries

Blogs are a potentially powerful tool for libraries. One of the things it can do is allow library staff to interact with the public much more easily than before. So staff can post reviews of books, hints on searching, and adverstise programs very easily without any need for techinical skills. Also, it can serve as a way for the public to interact with the library on a new level through commenting on the blogs. Although this adds a new level in terms of moderating the comments. I think blogs will play more and more of a role in the library world.
