			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7228" title="lawloc3" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lawloc3.jpg" alt="" width="657" height="494" />Last week I had a great visit at the Law Library of Congress. My visit began with an introduction by <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/01/an-interview-with-david-mao/"><span style="color: #000000;">David Mao</span></a>, Deputy Law Librarians of Congress, who gave share some historical background about the library, the scope of the collection, and the type of services they provide.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">La semana pasada tuve una visita excelente en la Biblioteca de Leyes del Congreso. Mi visita comenzó con una introducción de <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/01/an-interview-with-david-mao/">David Mao</a>, Bibliotecarios Adjunto de Derecho del Congreso, quién dio a compartir algunos antecedentes históricos sobre la biblioteca, el alcance de la colección, y el tipo de servicios que prestan.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The LOC was established in 1800 as the government moved from Philadelphia to DC. In 1814 the library was destroyed with the British burned the Capitol Buildings, and in 1815 the library began anew with the purchase of Thomas Jefferson&#8217;s personal library. As the country grew and acquired the Louisiana Territory, Florida, and a portion of Mexico, the Law LOC strengthen their effort to collect foreign law.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">La LOC se estableció en 1800 cuando el gobierno se traslado de Filadelfia a Washington DC. En 1814 la biblioteca fue destruida por los británicos quienes quemaron los edificios del Capitolio. En 1815 la biblioteca comenzó de nuevo con la compra de la biblioteca personal del ex-presidente Thomas Jefferson. A medida que el país creció y adquirió el territorio de Louisiana, Florida, y una parte de México, la LOC jurídica fortaleció sus esfuerzos para coleccionar ley extranjera.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Afterwards I met Janice Hyde, director of GLIN Central. Janice share all her tricks about this great database. And in case you don&#8217;t know about GLIN, it stands for <a href="http://www.glin.gov/search.action"><span style="color: #000000;">Global Legal Information Network</span></a> and it&#8217;s a great tool to find official texts of laws, regulations, judicial decisions, and other complementary legal sources contributed by governmental agencies and international organizations. The initial search screen is a Google style search box, but you can also select &#8220;More search options&#8221; and limit your search by country, date, and <a href="http://www.glin.gov/subjectTermIndex.action"><span style="color: #000000;">subject terms</span></a> - do notice that you can download this entire index and use it for your own work if needed. And here is the <a href="https://docs.google.com/open?id=13_PV4Qi5V7JD9fVbzZJyknwvAWkJ0tjLTjX-QpH2kpEyvEuwZiPJdfrEzyUf">search guide</a> Janice shared with me, it&#8217;s everything you ever wanted to know about GLIN.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Después conocí a Janice Hyde, directora de GLIN Central. Janice compartir todos sus trucos acerca de esta gran base de datos. Y en caso de que no sepan de esta base de datos,  <a href="http://www.glin.gov/search.action">GLIN es la Red Global de Información Legal</a> y es una gran herramienta para encontrar los textos oficiales de leyes, reglamentos, decisiones judiciales y otras fuentes complementarias, todas aportados por la varias agencias gubernamentales y organizaciones internacionales. La pagina inicial de búsqueda es un cuadro de búsqueda estilo Google, pero también puede seleccionar &#8221;Más opciones de búsqueda&#8221; y limitar la búsqueda por país, fecha y <a href="http://www.glin.gov/subjectTermIndex.action">términos </a>- dese cuenta de si desea puede descargar este índice completo y utilizarlo para su propio trabajo. Y aquí está la <a href="https://docs.google.com/open?id=13_PV4Qi5V7JD9fVbzZJyknwvAWkJ0tjLTjX-QpH2kpEyvEuwZiPJdfrEzyUf">guía de búsqueda</a> que Janice compartido conmigo, es todo lo que siempre quiso saber sobre GLIN.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7211" title="lawloc2" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/lawloc2.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="592" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Next came Eduardo Soares, Senior Foreign Law Specialist. Eduardo and the other foreign law specialist tend to have been raised and received their legal training abroad. Such a background allows them to be experts in other legal systems so they may correctly explain these jurisdictions to Congress members and other patrons. Their expertise also allows them to do comparative research and help local patrons research legislation from around the world. The foreign law specialist also produce reports that will inform congress members about a variety of topics. Many of these report are initially available only to Congress, but some of the information is shared with the public later on through a variety of means.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Después vino Eduardo Soares, Especialista Principal del Derecho Extranjero. Eduardo y los otro especialista en derecho extranjero tienden a se extranjeros y a haber recibido su capacitación profesional en su país de origen. Su currículo les permite ser expertos en otros sistemas jurídicos, lo cual les permite poder explicar estas jurisdicciones a los miembros del Congreso y otros usuarios de la biblioteca. Su experiencia también les permite hacer estudios comparativos, y ayudar a sus usuarios a hacer investigación sobre la legislación del mundo. El especialista en derecho extranjero también elaborar informes que informarán a los miembros del Congreso acerca de una variedad de temas. Muchos de estos informes están disponibles inicialmente sólo para el Congreso, pero parte de la información es compartida con el público más adelante a través de una variedad de medios.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">One of the places where to access information gathered by the foreign law specialist if the Global Legal Monitor. Here are <a href="http://www.loc.gov/lawweb/servlet/lloc_news?rss"><span style="color: #000000;">all their RSS options</span></a>. I&#8217;m subscribed to a few of these, and love receiving their notices directly in my reader. Another place to check is the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/current-topics.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Current Legal topics</span></a> which provide commentary and recommended resources about events with legal significance. A third place to look are their <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Guides to the law Online</span></a>. Here you will find tons of great resources on USA law, <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/nations.php"><span style="color: #000000;">many countries around the world</span></a>, as well as <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/international.php"><span style="color: #000000;">international and multinational law</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Uno de los lugares donde se comparte la información recopilada por el especialista en derecho extranjero es el Global Legal Monitor. Aquí están <a href="http://www.loc.gov/lawweb/servlet/lloc_news?rss">todas las opciones de RSS</a>. Estoy suscrito a algunos de estos, y me encanta recibir sus anuncios directamente en mi lector. Otro lugar para ver es <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/current-topics.php">Temas Jurídicos Actuales</a> que ofrecen comentarios y recursos recomendados sobre los acontecimientos con relevancia jurídica. Un tercer lugar para buscar son sus <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide.php">guías de la ley en línea</a>. Aquí usted encontrará toneladas de excelentes recursos sobre legislación de EE.UU., la ley de <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/nations.php">muchos países del mundo</a>, así como el <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/help/guide/international.php">derecho internacional y supranacional</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Then I met <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/02/an-interview-with-matthew-braun/">Matthew Braun</a>, who works reference at the Law Loc. He shared a lot of general information about their services and how to find legal resources for the USA. One of the best destinations is <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php"><span style="color: #000000;">THOMAS</span></a>, which offers you USA legislation. Two other interesting online collection are the <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/find/court-nominations.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Supreme Court Nominations</span></a>, and <a href="http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/amlaw/"><span style="color: #000000;">A Century of Lawmaking</span></a> . He also answered questions about how to use the Law LOC (you just show up, and register for an ID), and their ILL services to other libraries. The Law LOC reference department is around to help everyone with their legal research. <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/"><span style="color: #000000;">Here are the many topics they cover and their contact information</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Luego conocí a <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/2011/02/an-interview-with-matthew-braun/">Matthew Braun</a>, quien trabaja como referenciasta en la LOC jurídica Braun compartió una gran cantidad de información general sobre sus servicios y como encontrar los recursos para investigación sobre la legislación de los EE.UU. Uno de los mejores portales es <a href="http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php">THOMAS</a>, el cual ofrece la legislación estadounidense. Otras dos colecciones en línea interesantes son las <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/find/court-nominations.php">Postulantes para la Corte Suprema de Justicia</a>, y <a href="http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/amlaw/">Un siglo de Legislación</a>. También respondió preguntas acerca de cómo usar la su biblioteca (basta con aparecerse, y registrarse para obtener un carné), y sus servicios de préstamo interbibliotecario con otras instituciones. El departamento de referencia esta disponible para ayudarle a todo el mundo con su investigación jurídica. <a href="http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/">Aquí están los muchos temas que abarcan y su información de contacto</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Last, but certainly, not least, Clifton Brown, Program Specialist for outreach and services allowed me to see their stacks! The onsite collection covers a football field and it&#8217;s a sight to see. Rows upon rows of books from all around the world, and any language you can image.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Por último, pero no por ello menos importante, Clifton Brown, especialista del programa de servicios de extensión ¡me permitió ver la estantería privada de la biblioteca! La colección abarca todo un campo de fútbol y es un espectáculo digno de ver. Filas y filas de libros de todo el mundo, y cuantos idiomas pueda imaginar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As the de facto National Library, the LOC works to serve Congress, the Supreme Court, and all the rest of us! Today anyone from the USA or abroad can call, email, or show up at the Law LOC and get help with their research. If you are in DC, do go visit them, they are doing wonders with our tax dollars!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;">Siendo la biblioteca nacional por defecto, la biblioteca del congreso trabaja en servicio del congreso, la Corte Suprema, ¡y todo nosotros! Hoy cualquiera persona en los EE.UU. o desde el extranjero puede llamar, enviar un correo electrónico o presentarse en persona y obtendrá ayuda con su investigación. Si usted está en DC, no deje de ir a la biblioteca del congreso. ¡Ellos están haciendo maravillas con nuestros impuestos! </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;"><span style="color: #000000;">A million thanks to my friend Ángel Alonso for helping set up this visit!</span> </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;"> ¡Mil gracias a mi amigo Ángel Alonso por ayudar a coordinar esta visita!</span></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/lawlibraryofcongress"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-6550" title="law LOC" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/law-LOC.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="476" /></a><span style="color: #000000;">Today I spent the morning at the Law Library of Congress attending their <em><a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-orient.php"><span style="color: #000000;">Orientation to Legal Research and the Use of Law Library Collections</span></a> </em>session. I first learned about this event from their blog &#8221; <a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/"><span style="color: #000000;">In Custodia Legis</span></a>&#8221; and was delighted to attend.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Hoy he pasado la mañana en la Biblioteca Legal del Congreso participando en su <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-orient.php"><em>orientación a la investigación jurídica y el uso de la colección de la biblioteca lega</em>l</a>. Me enteré de este evento a través de su blog &#8220;<a href="http://blogs.loc.gov/law/">En Custodia Legis</a>&#8221; y quede encantada de poder participar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The session lasted 2.5 hours and we covered a lot of material. The session focused on federal legal research, and we worked with examples on the subject of home health care. The librarian offering the session did a great job by starting off with some background information about types of laws, and the difference between the types of resources, then showed us where to look for relevant information within their print and online collections.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La sesión duró 2,5 horas y cubrió una gran cantidad de material. La sesión se centró en la investigación judicial federal, y se trabajó con ejemplos sobre el tema de la atención de salud en el hogar. La bibliotecaria que ofreció la sesión hizo una labor magnifica. Empezó con información general acerca de los diferentes tipos de leyes, y la diferencia entre los tipos de recursos, luego nos mostró dónde buscar información pertinente dentro de sus colecciones impresas y en línea.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For the legislative branch the online resources we covered were <a href="http://thomas.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Thomas.gov</span></a> which offers legislative information, <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/"><span style="color: #000000;">FDsys</span></a> which is the government&#8217;s printing office, and <a href="http://uscode.house.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">USCODE</span></a> whose name is self explanatory.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Acerca del Poder Legislativo de los recursos en línea que miramos fueron <a href="http://thomas.gov/">Thomas.gov</a> que ofrece información legislativa, <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/">FDsys</a> que es la oficina de impresión del gobierno, y <a href="http://uscode.house.gov/">USCODE</a> que ofrece todo el código del país.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">For the judicial branch we talked about the differences in courts, and how much of their decisions get published and become public. For district courts this number is only 5-10%. The courts of appeals publish between 45-55% through the Federal Reporter, and everything the Supreme Court decides becomes public. Curiously, Cornell University&#8217;s law school started publishing these Supreme Court decisions long before the government got around to it, so their online collection &#8211; <a href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/"><span style="color: #000000;">LII </span></a>- is more complete and goes back further than the resources on the <a href="http://www.supremecourt.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Supreme Court&#8217;s website</span></a>. We also looked at <a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/Home.aspx"><span style="color: #000000;">USCOURTS</span></a> for all sorts of information on courts. This site also includes a<a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/JudgesAndJudgeships/BiographicalDirectoryOfJudges.aspx"><span style="color: #000000;"> biographical directory of all the federal judges</span></a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Para el Poder Judicial hablamos acerca de las diferencias en los tribunales, y cómo parte de sus decisiones se publican y se hacen públicos. Para los tribunales de distrito este número es sólo el 5-10%. Los tribunales de apelaciones publicar entre 45-55% a través del reportero Federal, y todo lo que el Tribunal Supremo decide se hace público. Curiosamente escuela de derecho de la Universidad de Cornell comenzó a publicar estas decisiones de la Corte Suprema mucho antes de que el gobierno llegó a hacerlo, así que su colección en línea &#8211; <a href="http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/">LII</a> &#8211; es mucho más completo y regresa más atrás que los recursos en el <a href="http://www.supremecourt.gov/">sitio web de la Corte Suprema</a>. También nos miramos USCOURTS para todo tipo de información sobre los tribunales. Este sitio también incluye una <a href="http://www.uscourts.gov/JudgesAndJudgeships/BiographicalDirectoryOfJudges.aspx">guía biográfica de todos los jueces federales</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">At the end of the session we looked at a couple of resources outside the government. One of these was <a href="http://www.llrx.com/"><span style="color: #000000;">LLRX.com</span></a> which offers a wide range of resources for legal professionals; best of all are their <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-research.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">research guides</span></a>, <a href="http://www.llrx.com/librarian-resources.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">resources for librarians</span></a>, and <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-technology.htm"><span style="color: #000000;">legal technology</span></a>. The other site we looked at was the <a href="http://llsdc.org/"><span style="color: #000000;">Law Librarians Society of Washington DC</span></a> (LLSDC) which can help make local connections.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Al final de la sesión vimos un par de los recursos fuera del gobierno. Uno de ellos fue <a href="http://www.llrx.com/">LLRX.com</a> que ofrece una amplia gama de recursos para profesionales del derecho, lo mejor de todo son sus <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-research.htm">guías de investigación</a>,<a href="http://www.llrx.com/librarian-resources.htm"> recursos para bibliotecarios</a>, y <a href="http://www.llrx.com/legal-technology.htm">tecnología jurídica</a>. El otro sitio que vimos fue la Ley de Sociedad de Bibliotecarios de Washington DC (LLSDC) que puede ayudar a hacer conexiones locales.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If all of these resources look a bit advance, and you need to start at the beginning take a look at <a href="http://kids.clerk.house.gov/"><span style="color: #000000;">Kids in the House</span></a> which will give you some of the basic terminology, and will explain how bills are passed. The site offers resources divided by school level.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Si todos estos recursos le parecen un poco adelantado y necesita empezar por el principio mire<a href="http://kids.clerk.house.gov/"> este sitio creado para niños</a> y que ofrece terminología básica y explicará cómo se pasan la leyes. El sitio ofrece recursos divididos por nivel escolar.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you are in the DC area I really recommend the session. It&#8217;s free and all you have to do is <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-form.php"><span style="color: #000000;">register</span></a> to attend.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Si se encuentra en el área de DC realmente recomiendo la sesión. Es gratis y todo lo que tienes que hacer es <a href="http://www.loc.gov/law/opportunities/seminar-form.php">registrarse </a>para asistir.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ruefind.com/world-map.aspx"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6263" title="ruefind1" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/ruefind1.jpg" alt="" width="627" height="334" /></a></p>
<p>I just received an email from Thabo Jakavula who shared this great site called <a href="http://ruefind.com/">RueFind</a>. The site is a Google map that gathers images and information about interesting sites around the world. The <a href="http://ruefind.com/world-map.aspx">map</a> is covered in small images which you can click on to see a little more information about the site.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Acabo de recibir un correo electrónico de Thabo Jakavula quien me compartió este gran sitio web llamado RueFind. El sitio es un mapa de Google que recoge imágenes e información sobre sitios de interés en todo el mundo. El mapa está cubierto de pequeñas imágenes sobre las que puedes hacer clic para ver un poco más de información sobre el sitio.</span></p>
<p>Starting from the homepage you can also browse through the more popular cities, and see what attractions each one offers. On the right hand side you will also find other categories to browse through such as <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/museums.aspx">museums</a>, <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/lighthouses.aspx">lighthouses</a>, <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/castles.aspx">castles</a>, etc. A search for libraries only yielded <a href="http://ruefind.com/searchworld/libraries.aspx">one result</a>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">A partir de la página principal también se puede navegar a través de las ciudades más populares y ver lo que cada una ofrece en atracciones. Al lado derecho también encontrará otras categorías tales como <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/museums.aspx">museos</a>, <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/lighthouses.aspx">faros</a>, <a href="http://ruefind.com/category-pictures/castles.aspx">castillos</a>, etc. Una búsqueda de bibliotecas sólo se dio <a href="http://ruefind.com/searchworld/libraries.aspx">un resultado</a>.</span></p>
<p>I really like how visual this site is and the photographs are beautiful, although I do think the descriptions of the places are a bit short. Maybe a link out to the wikipedia entry for each site would help. The coverage also heavily focuses on North American and Western Europe, with little information for the rest of the world. Still, it&#8217;s a great site, and worth visiting.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">A mi me gusta que este sitio es tan visual y las fotos son hermosas, aunque yo creo que las descripciones de los lugares son un poco cortas. Tal vez un enlace a la entrada de Wikipedia para cada sitio ayudaría. La cobertura se enfoca en gran medida en América del Norte y Europa Occidental, con poca información sobre el resto del mundo. Aún así es un gran sitio y vale la pena visitarlo.</span></p>
<p>This is a participatory site and everyone can join in to help contribute images, and information.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Este es un sitio participativo y todo el mundo pueden unirse para ayudar a contribuir imágenes e información.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newspapermap.com/"><img class="size-full wp-image-6244 alignleft" title="newspaper map" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/newspaper-map.jpg" alt="" width="342" height="539" /></a></p>
<p>I just discovered this cool site that help you find newspapers across the globe! <a href="http://www.newspapermap.com/">Newspaper Map</a> is very easy to use, and color coordinated to make things easy to find. The different colors of the pins represent the language of the original newspaper, and the site allows you to navigate in English, German, or Japanese.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Acabo de descubrir este excelente sitio que le ayudará a encontrar periódicos de todo el mundo! <a href="http://www.newspapermap.com/">Newspaper Map</a> es muy fácil de usar y esta coordinado por para facilitar la búsqueda. Los diferentes colores de los alfileres representan el idioma original del diario y el sitio le permite navegar en Inglés, alemán o japonés.</span></p>
<p>You can begin looking for newspapers by clicking on the pins across the map. Each pin will give you the name of the newspaper, and will offer you the option of reading the site in multiple languages. And in order to get a closer look at the pins, you can zoom in on a specific region. You can also use the search box to look for specific titles, or search by address.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Puede comenzar a ojear los periódicos haciendo clic en los alfileres a través del mapa. Cada alfiler le dará el nombre del periódico y le ofrecerá la opción de leer el sitio en varios idiomas. Y con el fin de conseguir una mirada más de cerca a los alfileres, puede ampliar cada región. También puede utilizar el cuadro de búsqueda para buscar títulos específicos, o buscar por dirección.</span></p>
<p>As I browse the site I&#8217;m finding newspapers I&#8217;ve never heard of, but I also don&#8217;t see other newspapers I do know of. The site is still in beta, so hopefully more and more newspapers will be added over time.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Mientras navego el sitio estoy encontrando periódicos que nunca he oído nombrar, pero también me doy cuenta que faltan otros que si sé existen. El sitio está todavía en fase beta así es que espero que con el tiempo agreguen más y más periódicos.</span></p>

The session offered some good sites where we can find government information (local, state, and federal), shared some information about patron use of these resources, and offered some statistical information on the subject.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Esta  tarde asistí a un <a href="https://alapublishing.webex.com/mw0306lb/mywebex/default.do?nomenu=true&amp;siteurl=alapublishing&amp;service=6&amp;main_url=https://alapublishing.webex.com/ec0605lb/eventcenter/enroll/join.do%3FactionType%3Dinstancejoin%26confViewID%3D279259913%26confId%3D279259913%26siteurl%3Dalapublishing%26encryptTicket%3D9d7dc9533f148ebe71efa126dde51648%26encryptTicketRegister%3D9d7dc9533f148ebe71efa126dde51648%26email%3Dsmiles%2540fas.harvard.edu%26%26">seminario web de ALA sobre E-Gobierno</a>. La sesión  ofreció información sobre algunos sitios buenos donde podemos encontrar  información gubernamental (a nivel local, estatal y federal), algo de  información sobre los usuarios de estos recursos, y algunas estadísticas  sobre el tema.</span></p>
<p>The first panelist was Nancy Fedrericks, e-government librarian, Pasco County Public Library (Florida). Fedrericks shared some resources found at her local library, including a section on their <a href="http://www.pascolibraries.org/egovt.shtml">website</a>, a <a href="http://pclsegov.blogspot.com/">blog</a>, and some <a href="http://pascolibraries.org/egovtools.shtml">online tools</a> to help patrons use these resources. She talked about the use these resources get at her library, and mentioned that it is best to be very careful about privacy issues when helping patrons with these resources, and when at all possible ask them to get help from a friend or family member, instead of the librarian.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El  primera presentadora fue Nancy Fedrericks, bibliotecaria de e-gobierno  en la Biblioteca Pública del Condado de Pasco (Florida). Fedrericks  compartio algunos recursos que se encuentran en su biblioteca local,  incluyendo una sección en su <a href="http://www.pascolibraries.org/egovt.shtml">página web</a>, un <a href="http://pclsegov.blogspot.com/">blog</a>, y algunas <a href="http://pascolibraries.org/egovtools.shtml">herramientas  en línea</a> para ayudar a los usuarios a utilizar estos recursos. También  habló sobre el uso que estos recursos recibe en su biblioteca y mencionó  que lo mejor es tener mucho cuidado en cuando a asuntos de  privacidad  al ayudar a los usuarios con estos recursos, y en cuanto sea posible  pedirles que busquen ayuda de un amigo o familiar, en lugar del  bibliotecario.</span></p>
<p>She also shared the website <a href="http://lawhelp.org/">LawHelp.org</a> which offers help finding local legal help and information. The site offers resources for every state. Fredericks also has older presentations on this topic on Webjunction. Here are a few of her presentations; <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/gi21-intro-egovernment/-/articles/content/91741367">E-Government: Tips, Tools, and Best Practices</a>, <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/events/webinars/webinar-archives/-/articles/content/98612509">Re-tooling Frontline Staff with E-government Resources</a>, and <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/workforce-resources/-/articles/content/91251319">Community Accessed E-Government Websites</a>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">También  compartió en enlace <a href="http://lawhelp.org/">LawHelp.org</a> sitio web que ofrece ayuda para  encontrar assistencia legal e información jurídica. El sitio ofrece  recursos para cada estado de EE.UU. Fredericks también tiene otras  presentaciones sobre este tema en Webjunction. Aquí están algunas de sus  presentaciones, <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/gi21-intro-egovernment/-/articles/content/91741367">e-Gobierno: Consejos, herramientas y mejores prácticas</a>,  <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/events/webinars/webinar-archives/-/articles/content/98612509">Recreando al personal de  primera línea con las herramientas de  gobierno electrónico</a>, y <a href="http://www.webjunction.org/workforce-resources/-/articles/content/91251319">Sitios web de E-Gobierno evaluados por la  comunidad</a>.</span></p>
<p>The next presenter was Bill Sudduth, Head, Government Information and Microforms, Newspapers and Maps, University of South Carolina. Sudduth shared a number of website that are great examples of how to best offer e-gov resources. His collection of site included e-gov at every level. At the federal level there is <a href="http://www.usa.gov/">USA.gov</a>, and <a href="http://www.gpoaccess.gov/">GPO Access</a>, which offered free electronic access to documents produced by the Federal Government. <a href="http://www.virginia.gov/cmsportal3/">Virginia.gov</a> was a good example of a state site, and on the local level, <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/">Boston&#8217;s website</a> took the top prize!</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El  siguiente ponente fue Bill Sudduth, Jefe de Información Gubernamental,  Microformas, Prensa y Mapas de la Universidad de Carolina del Sur.  Sudduth compartió una serie de sitio web que son excelentes ejemplos de  la mejor manera de ofrecer recursos de e-gov. Su colección de sitio  incluye e-gobierno a todos los niveles. A nivel federal esta <a href="http://www.usa.gov/">USA.gov</a>, y <a href="http://www.gpoaccess.gov/">GPO Access</a>, que ofrece acceso electrónico gratuito a los documentos  Gobierno Federal (EE.UU). <a href="http://www.virginia.gov/cmsportal3/">Virginia.gov</a> es un buen ejemplo de un sitio  del estado, ¡y a nivel local el <a href="http://www.cityofboston.gov/">sitio web de Boston</a> se gano el primer premio!</span></p>
<p>The third and last presenter was John Bertot, Director, Center for Library &amp; Information Innovation, University of Maryland. Bertot talked about the intersection of public libraries and E-government. He began by sharing a map of all the public libraries in the USA commenting that they really cover the entire nation, and that now that governments at every level are cutting resources, the public library has often had to fill this gap.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El  tercer y último presentador fue John Bertot, Director del Centro de  Innovación de Bibliotecas e Información de la Universidad de Maryland.  Bertot habló sobre la intersección de las bibliotecas públicas y el  gobierno electrónico. Empezó por compartir un mapa de todas las  bibliotecas públicas en los EE.UU. comentando que realmente cubren toda  la nación, y que ahora que los gobiernos a todos los niveles están  reduciendo servicios y recursos, la biblioteca pública a menudo ha  tenido que llenar este vacío.</span></p>
<p>Bertot share some information from the <a href="http://www.plinternetsurvey.org/?q=node/63">Center for Library &amp; Information Innovation (CLII) in the College of Information Studies at the University of Maryland illustrating this relationship between libraries and e-gov</a>. This site includes a lot of statistical information on the subject, and these <a href="http://clii.umd.edu/sites/default/Briefs/EgovBrief10July10.pdf">handy fliers (this is the e-gov one)</a>, that will give you a great starting point if you need to advocate for these services at your library.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Bertot  compartió información del <a href="http://www.plinternetsurvey.org/?q=node/63">Centro de Innovación de Bibliotecas e  Información (CLII) en el Colegio de Estudios de la Información en la  Universidad de Maryland que ilustra esta relación entre las bibliotecas y  el e-gov</a>. Este sitio incluye una gran cantidad de información  estadística sobre el tema y estos <a href="http://clii.umd.edu/sites/default/Briefs/EgovBrief10July10.pdf">útiles folletos (este es el de e-gov)</a> que le dará un gran punto de partida si necesita abogar por estos  servicios en su biblioteca.</span></p>
<p>At the end Bertot talked a little about the increasing need for librarians to be able to fully understand how to work with e-gov material. Because of this need the University of Maryland has established a <a href="http://clii.umd.edu/libegov/Library_E-government_Scholarship/Home.html">program for E-Government Librarianship</a>!</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Al  final Bertot habló un poco acerca de que cada vez es mayor la necesidad  de que como bibliotecarios podamos trabajar de manera competente con  este material. Debido a esta necesidad la Universidad de Maryland ha  establecido un <a href="http://clii.umd.edu/libegov/Library_E-government_Scholarship/Home.html">programa de Bibliotecologia para E-Gobierno</a>!</span></p>
<p>The whole program was good, and best of all it was free! I&#8217;m already looking forward to more interesting webinars!</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Todo el programa estuvo bueno, y lo mejor de todo es que salio gratis! Ya estoy deseando más seminarios interesante!</span></p>

<p>Mexico has recently release the <a href="http://bdmx.mx/">Biblioteca Digital Mexicana</a>, a great digital collection giving us access to documents dating back to Mexico&#8217;s precolonial history, independence and revolutionary period. The site offers excellent digital scans of codices, including some information on the physical item, and some historical context.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">México acaba de anunciar la <a href="http://bdmx.mx/">Biblioteca Digital Mexicana</a>, una gran  colección digital que nos da acceso a documentos que datan de la  historia pre-colonial de México, su independencia y el período  revolucionario. El sitio ofrece un excelente imágenes digital de los  códices incluyendo información sobre el articulo físico y un poco de  contexto histórico.</span></p>
<p>This project was created through the work of four Mexican cultural institutions; Archivo General de la Nación, La Biblioteca Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH),  el Centro de Estudios de Historia de México CEHM- Carso, y el Consejo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes. These institutions have previously shared some of their holdings through the <a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/2009/04/20/world-digital-library-goes-live/">World Digital Library</a>.</p>

<p>This project takes off with a handful of items, but I assume more will be added over time.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Este proyecto arranca con un puñado de documentos, pero supongo que se añadirán más en el futuro.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5567" title="help a librarian" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/help-a-librarian.png" alt="" width="260" height="164" />Earlier today I got a Facebook friend request from Heather Durkin Negley and discovered a great project she set up. <a href="http://helpalibrarian.com/">Help A Librarian</a> is an online tool that helps librarians share information and help each other. The project, which was founded earlier this year, began as a Facebook group, and eventually moved to a separate site on the web.</p>
<p>The idea behind the site is simple, to help one another. The site basically offers subscribers the ability to post questions and receive help from librarians across the world. Before you sign up, you can begin to see the type of questions that are being posted on the site, and the type of answers coming back. And from what I can see, the discussions always happen in English.</p>
<p>This project is very similar to <a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/2009/08/11/project-wombat/">Project Wombat</a>. As far as I can tell the only difference is that Help A Librarian handles only questions directly related to libraries, while Project Wombat will try and resolve questions of any kind.</p>
<p>You can find <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Help-a-Librarian-Out/121563954539476">Help A Librarian on Facebook</a>, or directly sign up with them to start sharing information!</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Hoy recibí una solicitud de amistad en Facebook de Heather Durkin Negley y descubri un projecto muy interesante que ella creó. <a href="http://helpalibrarian.com/">Ayuda Un Bibliotecario</a> (Help A Librarian) es una herramienta en línea que ayuda a compartir información entre bibliotecarios y ayudarse mutuamente. El proyecto, que fue fundado a principios de este año, que comenzó como un grupo en Facebook, y eventualmente se trasladó a un sitio separado en la web.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La idea detrás del sitio es simple, ayudarnos los unos a los otros. El sitio básicamente ofrece a los suscriptores la capacidad de plantear preguntas y recibir ayuda de otros bibliotecarios alrededor del mundo. Antes de inscribirse puede ver el tipo de preguntas que se están publicando en el sitio y el tipo de preguntas recibidas. Y hasta donde alcanzo a ver los intercambios siempre sucede en inglés.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Este proyecto es muy similar al <a href="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/2009/08/11/project-wombat/">Proyecto Wombat</a>. Parece que la única diferencia es que Ayuda Un Bibliotecario sólo se ocupa de cuestiones directamente relacionadas con bibliotecas, mientras que el Proyecto Wombat a tratar de resolver preguntas de cualquier tipo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Usted puede encontrar <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Help-a-Librarian-Out/121563954539476">Ayuda Un Bibliotecario en Facebook</a>, ¡o directamente inscribirse con ellos para iniciar el intercambio de información!</span></p>
