Links and Stuff: April 29, 2010

  • Social media is helping to save libraries. But can it be a continuing trend?
  • The Mayor of NYC has signed a law that requires the Department of Education to hand out library card applications. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Like the idea, don't like that it is an actual law. 
  • Eating and reading have always been fun activities to pair. The Baltimore County library system is taking that partnership to a new level to combat "food deserts."  You can order groceries through the library and they will be delivered the next day. 
  • I've been saying it for awhile: Digital literacy is more than knowing how to use a computer. I'm glad I'm not alone in this.
