Jessamyn is one of the reasons I *don’t* believe culture is heading to hell in a handbasket! Glad to see you here!

Snowshoeing sucks because it involves snow. And my color is blue, which it would have to be since I’m retired AF. Welcome.

I know that this is foolish, but do you know George Wells?

Right on Jessamyn, looking forward to your posts! You and other librarians like Sanford Berman continue to be great inspirations to me in my life and work.

Way to Jessamyn! You are a wonderfully insightful blogger and professional. I am glad to see a fellow librarian contributing in areas beyond the librariana world.
I look forward to following your posts here.

Jessamyn,

I so look forward to your input. I fear the librarian will become about as needed as canal boat mule drivers. So sad. When libraries and real books become museums and museum items, where will we find intelligent answers to our questions? Certainly not the search engines. Open stacks is where the treasures are. I for one have found my best resources by looking on a shelf for a book that a librarian sent me to, only to find what I “really” wanted in an adjacent book on the nearby shelf.
Thank you for sharing your views.

I think librarians of all genders are unspeakably hot. Just sayin’.

I met you at a Vermont Blogger meeting a few years back. I was working on my MA thesis and loved what you had to say on the panel and in person. Look forward to reading this….

omgomgomgomgomgomg! Jessamyn is one of my information geek heroes. If the only thing she ever did was create these technically legal patriot act signs for public libraries, I would say: Dayenu!

Gah! I can’t abide these damned Libertarians on Boing Boing all the time. Bloody entitled anti-social creeps who…
What?
Librarian, you say? Oh. I like librarians!
Never mind.
