It is such a shame that public and tertiary librarians don't take more notice of what school librarians are doing and saying! I was certainly disappointed by Jenny Levine's comment - and I am not even in the same part of the world! I rely on my professional colleagues the world over, in what ever sector they happen to work. I would expect any librarian working in Web 2.0 tools to be includsive and collaborative - but apparently not so at LA. There are just so many school librarians doing a great job with their blogs, and with introduction of blogging into classroom pedagogy. Also, I'd like to say thanks very much for mentioning my blog - I'm honoured to have had "HeyJude" mentioned in your list. Diane, your letter is so ‘spot on’!!

I believe some of those may be listed on the site that Amy posted above. I find that it has really helped me develop professionally, as well as allowed me to share inspiration and tips with our staff, and connect with others outside of our campus. And I think our new student blog provides a way to make our services more personal for students in a big campus. My site is "Not so Distant Future" at www.futura.edublogs.org. Elementary and middle school librarians in my district are also using blogs/wikis with their students. I appreciate the list--and your comments. Thanks.

I have another link for you that has a pretty substantial list of school library bloggers but the comment section won't accept html coding. Try this one - blogwithoutalibrary dot net Hi Diane,
