In a previous post entitled, What are mobile friendly library sites offering?

First off, for those reading this from a RSS feed reader, do note that there is something wrong with the RSS feed and as such my last post "12 good library videos that spoofs movies or tv" from last week is not showing up in the feed.

Are libraries really the "next Big Pop Culture Phenomenon" ? We have all read about the old spice libraries viral videos (and spoofs) of course. There's also, Librarians Go Gaga: 9 Of The Funniest Library Videos. But perhaps the easiest way to get a hit viral library movie would be to spoof a tv show or movie. Here I list some interesting library video spoofs I have come across.

Edit : I edited quite a bit based on comments below. Clearly, there's a lot I don't know about these reference managers, and there's possibly some PBKC problems involved! So the results shouldn't be used to claim X is better than Y.  Also since I blogged, a lot of improvements has being made so the data here should be considered outdated.

I've recently began thinking about how to be more productive.

One of the keys themes of my blog is how to use free tools to get alerts of news of interest.

Note :This was blogged in July 2010, since then most of the reference managers have improved substantially so the information here can be considered outdated.

As you can probably tell from the blog name "Musings about librarianship", I clearly didn't give much thought to what I would be blogging about when I first started blogging in March 09 as the title is generic enough to cover almost anything about librarianship.

Early this year, I blogged about using Zbar iPhone app as a barcode reader to search your library. You scan the barcode of a book with your phone and it would extract the ISBN and search the library catalogue. You could put a setting in the iphone app and it would work for almost any library catalogue.

I know I'm a bit late to the party but recently , I came across Helene Blower's "New digital divide" via @digicmb.

I have shared in the past techniques that allow you to be aware of what users are saying about your library online.
