Library Cataloging
Catalogablog has won the Bloggerforum Top Site Award twice. I think the Handheld Librarian has done the same. This shows librarians know how to present information in an accessible manner. We have beat sites like Wesley Clark, Howard Dean and Dave Barry, maybe they should include a librarian on their Web site development team.To be fair, the search is pretty limited. It only includes sites using the Blogger software and hosted on Blog*Spot, as I understand their search. So the Shifted Librarian and Library Stuff are excluded. Still the sites we manage to top says something about the value of library science training.
