Caribbean Library Journal

The Campus Libraries at the University of the West Indies, St Augustine Campus launched first online Caribbean library journal - Caribbean library Journal.

This is a great initiative and I am looking forward to the first issue.

Caribbean Connector - A Trini Librarian blogger

Hi

Welcome Cheryl at Caribbean Connector.

Good to have another Caribbean librarian on board! I was begining to feel kinda lonesome!!!

Blogger survey results

Meredith Farkas over at Information Wants to be Free conducted a survey of people in the library and information science profession who blog. She conducted a similar survey in 2005.

Some results for the 2007 survey are now available on her website. I find it quite interesting. I note however that only 2 respondents were from the Bahamas/Caribbean. And I believe I am one of the two since I took the survey :-).

I am sending out a call to the Bahamian blogger. There seems to be so few Caribbean/West Indian library bloggers on line. I would be happy if you would make yourself known to me.
