I found that searching for interesting blogs wasn’t as easy as I thought. I used Feedster and Google Blog Search and with both of them I typed in a keyword, in this case, flute, and got all kinds of hits that had the word flute in them. Some of them were totally unrelated to what I was looking for. I found it much easier to type in the address of the blog I was interested in. I looked at the Library blogs and liked Library Bytes. I liked Helene’s Blowers posts on leadership. Especially her motto, “A leader brings out the best in themselves by bringing out the best in others”. You don’t have to be a manager to be a leader, we can each lead in our own way.
Our speaker for Staff Development Day is Michael Porter, who has a blog called Libraryman. It might be worth taking a look at that blog before November 9.
