The Information Professional?s Guide to Career Development Online by Priscilla K. Shontz urges us to have a visible presence on the Web to further our careers. Her advise is one of the reasons I began this 'blog, along with advise by Stephen King to write daily.

"Interviewing: Beware Blogging Blunders" by Cheryl LaGuardia and Ed Tallent mention some job applicants reveal too much for their own good. The links to the right are all ones I think present a professional persona. I have seen 'blogs by some librarians which tend to be more personal journals.
