Competency 4-RSS feeds.

I chose this RSS feed from the Tompkins  County Public Library in Ithaca,NY. because this library features programs worth publicizing through outreach. I was especially fascinated by the idea of their mother/daughter book club featured on their website:http://www.tcpl.org/

The website of the RSS feed is:http://www.libworm.com/rss/search.php?qu=%22public+libraries%22+%22public+library%22&t=Public+Libraries&r=Any&f=c&o=d

Competency 5 Library Thing-tagging/indexing/cataloging

I responded to a discussion of Heting Chu's book Information Representation  and Retrieval in the Digital Age posted on Library Thing. As one reader suggested that Chu's spellbinder will be the next Twilight, I  proposed that it should be made into a motion picture. Who do you think should star in the movie version?
 Seriously,though;I used the tags textbook, hardcover, and search strategies to describe Chu's book. I also wrote a review praising Chu's clear  writing style.

Here are some other tags that people added to this book: vocabulary,database,digital age, TWU,ISAR.

This book is a very useful tool for novice library students with its easy to read explanations and its legible font.
