USE OF BLOGS IN THE LIBRARY?

[Dr.Prabhat Pandey]

Most of the librarian want to know what's going on in the field of library or world before they start talking about it. Blogs are great forum, not only exposing the world to the issues facing both libraries and librarians, but also for thinking through their ideas and cultivating means of expressing them effectively. As a library professional we have a built in community of people interested in our perspective through lis community blogs.Publishing a blog is an opportunity to the libraries/librarians to demonstrate their individuality and thereby work to dispel some of these pervassive myths

Libraries/Librarians can use blog for a variety of purposes

-To provide uptodate information on local events

-To provide news and information sources for their community

-To advocate for the importance of library support

-To provide announcement of new library acquisitions, notice and various services of the library

-To get feedback from users

-To provide various web links to the users

-To bring all the lis professionals togather

-To publish the webpage easily without depending on hardwareand html skills.
