Oyarsa's Observances

This blog is created for my random thoughts and opinions. Conflicting opinions are always welcome, but comments or remarks left in a disrespectful or distasteful manner (to be determined by myself) will be either ignored or deleted. This blog has a zero-tolerance policy for spammers. Don't waste your time, spammers, go elsewhere.

Name:

"Oyarsa" for those who don't know, is the name of an archangel (or "god" with a little 'g') in C. S. Lewis's Space Trilogy. I liked the character, so I stole the name. Who am I? I am a library science student in Illinois who has a variety of interests--too many to list! I have worked in libraries for five years and counting.

Are you a good person?

Methinks the ALA should follow its own advice....

Quoting the Conservator...

ONE OF THE SUPPORTING CLAUSES OF THE ALA COUNCIL'S "Resolution on Disinformation, Media Manipulation & the Destruction of Information" of last summer states, "the removal [...] of information from the public domain" is "anathema to the ethos of librarianship and to the functioning of a healthy democracy."

Anyone tried recently to access the ALA Handbook of Organization 2004-2005 on the ALA Web site?


Good point. Why is the handbook of organization kept on the member's only page? Isn't it possible that a non-member might wish to access and use it as well?
