This might just be the best blog there is for deep, researched, insightful analysis of emerging technologies and librarianship. She doesn’t update often, but don’t worry, you’ll need the time between posts to read and absorb. You should put this blog into your feeds and follow it regularly, but for now, see these posts on online community:
