<p>It seems that everyday one of my facebook friends is requesting advice from the rest of the group. Well Facebook has just made this task a whole lot easier. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/questions">Facebook Questions </a>offers three ways of interacting with others. You can 1) get recommendations of things, say restaurants, or movies, 2) see where people stand on a particular issue by creating a poll, and 3) you can answer questions and help point others in the right direction.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Parece que todos los días algún amigo Facebook está solicitando el información del resto del grupo. Bueno pues Facebook acaba de hacer esta tarea mucho más fácil. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/questions">Preguntas de Facebook</a> ofrece tres formas de interactuar con los demás. Puede 1) obtener recomendaciones de alguna cosa, por ejemplo restaurantes, o películas, 2) ver que opinan otros sobre un tema en particular mediante la creación de una encuesta, y 3) podrá responder preguntas y ayudar a otros guiándolos hacia la información correcta.</span></p>
<p>It seems that this new feature is being gradually rolled out, so if you don&#8217;t have access yet, you should soon.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Parece que esta nueva aplicación se está haciendo disponible gradualmente, así es que, si no tienen acceso debería tenerlo pronto.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #888888;">Inicialmente leí sobre este tema en <a href="http://www.arturogoga.com/2011/03/28/preguntas-de-facebook-una-manera-rpida-de-obtener-respuestas-a-nuestras-dudas/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Arturogoga+%28arturogoga%29">ArturoGoga.com</a></span></p>

It seems that everyday one of my facebook friends is requesting advice from the rest of the group. Well Facebook has just made this task a whole lot easier. Facebook Questions offers three ways of interacting with others.

<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>

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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tomorrow a group of librarians and library enthusiast from around the world will try to make the hashtag <a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23biblioteca">#biblioteca</a> one of the Trending Topics on Twitter. The event will take place August 10, 2010 and will last an hour (10-11am EST).</p>
<p>This experiment was conducted exactly a year ago, and they almost achieve their goal, so hopefully this time they will make it.</p>
<p>You can <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=143360149016873">confirm your participation on their Facebook page</a>, and read more about the experiment through this <a href="http://maolibrarian.blogspot.com/2010/08/posicionar-el-hashtag-biblioteca-en.html">blog entry</a> (in Spanish). And here is a <a href="http://maolibrarian.blogspot.com/2010/08/que-es-o-hashtag-en-twitter-y-como.html">presentation further explaining how to use hashtags</a> (also in Spanish).</p>
<p>08\10\2010 &#8211; Mission accomplished, #biblioteca was among the <a href="http://es.twirus.com/">top ten Trending topics on Twitter</a> today!</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Mañana un grupo de bibliotecarios y un entusiasta de las bibliotecas </span><span style="color: #888888;">alrededor del mundo intentaran</span><span style="color: #888888;"><span style="color: #888888;"> </span>hacer que el hashtag <a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23biblioteca">#biblioteca</a> sea uno de los “trending topics” (temas del momento) en Twitter. El evento se llevará a cabo el 10 de agosto 2010 y tendrá una duración de una hora (10-11am hora del este- EEUU).</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"> Este experimento se llevó a cabo hace exactamente un año, y casi lograr su objetivo, así que espero que esta vez lo logren.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Puede <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=143360149016873">confirmar su participación en su página de Facebook</a>, y leer más sobre el experimento a través de esta <a href="http://maolibrarian.blogspot.com/2010/08/posicionar-el-hashtag-biblioteca-en.html">entrada de blog</a>. Y aquí hay una <a href="http://maolibrarian.blogspot.com/2010/08/que-es-o-hashtag-en-twitter-y-como.html">presentación que explica cómo utilizar hashtags</a>.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #888888;">08\10\2010 &#8211; ¡Misión cumplida, #biblioteca hoy se encontró entre los <a href="http://es.twirus.com/">diez mejores “trending topics” en Twitter</a>!</span></p>

(Does it get any better than this?!) Twil is hosted by Erik Boekestejin and Jaap van de Geer, both from the <a href="http://www.dok.info/index.php?cat=pagina&amp;pagina_id=110">DOK Library Concept Center</a> in Delft, Netherlands.</p>
<p>With each episode the two hosts interview  librarians, or other folks who are involved with the library world and related technological innovations. Some of the interviews right now include a priest from the Vatican who does podcasts, freelance journalists, and library school professors, among others. The site is still quite new, only 8 shows so far, but I think these guys are on to something great. Some of the episodes are as long as an hour, others run about 30 minutes, all broadcasts are in English.</p>

<p><span style="color: #888888;">Me acabo de enterar sobre el programa <a href="http://www.thisweekinlibraries.com/"><em>This Week in Libraries</em></a> (Esta semana en las bibliotecas) (twil), una serie de televisión en línea sobre las bibliotecas del mundo! (¿Hay algo mejor que esto?) Twil fue creada por Erik Boekestejin y Jaap van de Geer, ambos de la biblioteca DOK de Delft, Holanda.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Con cada capitulo los dos anfitriones entrevistan bibliotecarios, u otras personas que están involucrados con el mundo de las bibliotecas y relacionados con tecnologías de innovación. Algunas de las entrevistas en este momento incluyen un sacerdote del Vaticano que hace podcasts, periodistas independientes, y profesores de bibliotecologia, entre otros. El sitio  todavía esta bastante nuevo, por ahora sólo llevan 8 capítulos, pero creo que estos chicos tienen un proyecto con mucho futuro. Algunos de los episodios duran como una hora, otros solo como 30 minutos, todas las transmisiones son en inglés.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.privacyrevolution.org/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4595" title="privacyrevolution" src="http://www.bilinguallibrarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/privacyrevolution.jpg" alt="" width="251" height="402" /></a>The ALA (American Library Association) just established Choose Privacy Week (May 2 -8), which is part of <a href="http://www.privacyrevolution.org/">Privacy Revolution</a>. This new event aims at creating awareness of the digital environment we live in and how to best manage it. Before many of us adopted all the digital tools that help facilitate our work, daily chores, and keep us in touch with friends and family, guarding our privacy was pretty easy, all we had to do was close the curtains, and seal mail. Today many of us aren&#8217;t entire sure what information about us is out in the public sphere, nor how it got there.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m really glad ALA and the library community at large are taking on this issue since it seems that every day there is a new story of how our private information is being misused or misappropriated. One of the biggest examples right now is Facebook and the fact that every update seems to provide less privacy. And only last week <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/29/zuckerberg-privacy-stance_n_556679.html">Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook&#8217;s CEO let us know that he doesn&#8217;t believe in privacy</a>, and he&#8217;s at the helm of the one tool where millions of people around the globe are sharing much of their lives.</p>
<p>All of us really should learn how to best protect our privacy in an age where we both need some visibility, but shouldn&#8217;t be over exposed. Although I do think there are two major issues here to be discussed. There is the fact that a lot of people share very private moments through online venues which aren&#8217;t always committed to protecting our privacy, but the second part of this is the fact that new sites are turning up every day which promise to provide our full names, birthdays, addresses, credit scores and who knows what other sensitive information for the &#8220;low price of &#8230;&#8221;. The first issues I think we can all consciously decide to manage, but the second scenarios is something that needs legal action in order to protect regular citizens. We should all be protected from identify theft, online scams, and the like, and as a woman, I REALLY do not like the fact that for a small amount of money a stranger can find out what my phone number is or worst yet, where I live.</p>
<p>As a librarian I believe that people have a right to privacy and that libraries should be safe havens for research, personal development, and entertainment of all kinds. And as <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5440211">librarians in Connecticut who challenged the Patriot Act</a> reminded all of us a few years ago, libraries should be committed to this stance even when that means challenging federal officials.</p>
<p>I think a well managed online presence can be a great professional asset, but just as easily, a poor online presence can certainly come and bite us in the butt. This issue is getting enough attention that a number of writers are providing us with guidelines on how to best manage our online privacy. <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/">All Facebook</a> is an entire blog on how to best manage your Facebook account, including a <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/2009/02/facebook-privacy/">good post on privacy setting.</a> The Electronic Frontier Foundation Technology Director described the <a href="http://www.eff.org/wp/effs-top-12-ways-protect-your-online-privacy">Top 12 Ways To Protect Your Online Privacy</a>. There are plenty other articles if you run a few online searches. Another simple things to do is have a friend help you out with this. Have a friend run a few searches on you and then report back. Temporarily remove a friend from some of your online account and ask them to report back on what information they can still access on your accounts. And remember to do this regularly. Just be cause your information isn&#8217;t available today doesn&#8217;t mean it won&#8217;t be tomorrow.</p>
<p>You can read the press release for Choose Privacy Week from ALA <a href="http://www.ala.org/ala/newspresscenter/news/pressreleases2010/april2010/privacy_pio.cfm">here</a>.</p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La ALA (Asociación Americana de Bibliotecas) acaba de establecer la Semana de Elegir  la Privacidad (Mayo 2 -8) que es parte de la <a href="http://www.privacyrevolution.org/">Revolución de la Privacidad</a>. Este nuevo evento tiene como objetivo crear conciencia sobre el entorno digital en que vivimos y la mejor manera de manejarlo. Antes de que muchos de nosotros adoptáramos todas las herramientas digitales que ayudan a facilitar nuestro trabajo, nuestros deberes diarios, y nos mantienen en contacto con amigos y familiares, proteger nuestra privacidad era bastante fácil, solo bastaba con cerrar las cortinas y sellar nuestro correo. Hoy en día muchos de nosotros no podemos estar seguros de toda nuestra información que esta en la esfera pública, ni cómo llegó allí. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Me alegra que la ALA y la comunidad bibliotecaria en general está abordando este tema ya que parece que cada día hay una nueva historia de cómo nuestra información privada se use de manera abusiva o se apropiación indebidamente. Uno de los mayores ejemplos en este momento es Facebook y el hecho de que cada actualización parece ofrecer menos privacidad. Y sólo la semana pasada, <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/29/zuckerberg-privacy-stance_n_556679.html">Mark Zuckerberg, CEO de Facebook nos dejo saber que él no cree en la privacidad</a>, cosa seria siendo que él está al frente de la herramienta donde millones de personas en todo el mundo comparten gran parte de sus vidas. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Todos nosotros realmente deberíamos aprender como mejor proteger nuestra privacidad en una época en la que al mismo tiempo necesitamos un poco de visibilidad, pero no se debemos exponernos demasiado. Aunque creo que hay dos temas principales para discutir aquí. Esta el hecho de que mucha gente comparte momentos muy privados a través de lugares en línea que no siempre se compromete a proteger nuestra privacidad, pero la segunda parte de esto es el hecho de que  hay cantidad de  sitios nuevos que están apareciendo todos los días y que prometen proporcionar   nuestros nombre completo, fecha de nacimiento, dirección, cuentas de crédito y quién sabe qué otro tipo de información sensible, todo por el “bajo precio de&#8230;” El primer caso creo que lo podemos manejar conscientemente, pero el segundo caso es algo que necesita una acción legal con el fin de proteger a todos los ciudadanos. Todos debemos ser protegidos contra el robo de identidad, fraudes en línea, y demás, y como mujer realmente no me gusta  ni cinco el hecho de que por una pequeña cantidad de dinero un extraño puede saber cuál es mi número de teléfono, o peor aún, donde yo vivo. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Como bibliotecaria creo que la gente tiene derecho a la privacidad ya que las bibliotecas deben ser refugios seguros para la investigación, el desarrollo personal y el entretenimiento de todo tipo. Y como <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5440211">bibliotecarios en Connecticut que se enfrentaron contra el Patriot Act</a> nos recordaron a todos hace algunos años, las bibliotecas deben estar comprometidos con esta hecho, incluso cuando eso significa un retar a funcionarios federales. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Creo que una presencia en presencia en línea bien manejada puede ser de gran beneficio profesional, pero de igual manera, una presencia en línea mala nos puede dar muchos dolores de cabeza. Este problema esta empezando a atraer la atención de un número de escritores quienes nos están proporciona directrices sobre cómo administrar mejor nuestra privacidad en línea. <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/">All Facebook</a> es un blog dedicado a cómo mejor administrar nuestra cuenta de Facebook, incluyendo un <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/2009/02/facebook-privacy/">buen articulo sobre la configuración de privacidad de nuestra cuenta</a>. El director de la Electronic Frontier Foundation describió las <a href="http://www.eff.org/wp/effs-top-12-ways-protect-your-online-privacy">12  mejores maneras de proteger nuestra privacidad en línea</a>. Con solo hacer un par de búsquedas en internet, seguro podrá encontrar mas artículos sobre el tema.  Otra cosas simples por hacer es pedirle a un que le ayude con esto. Pídale a un amigo que haga un par de búsquedas con su nombre y que luego le informe sobre lo que encontró. Temporalmente elimine a un amigo de algunas de su cuenta en línea y pedales que le informen sobre qué información esta disponible en sus cuentas. Y recuerde que es buena idea hacer estos chequeos con regularidad. No encontrar algo hoy, no quiere decir que mañana sera lo mismo. </span></p>

<p>My rating: <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/88183445">5 of 5 stars</a></p>
<p>I picked up a galley of this book while attending ALA Midwinter, and thoroughly enjoyed it. <a href="http://marilynjohnson.net/">Marilyn Johnson</a> became interested in librarians while researching her previous book on obituaries, and running into a few fascinating librarians death notices. A few quirky librarians may have initially caught her attention, but she is clearly enamored with the field, the staff, and the whole concept of sharing information for free.</p>
<p>Johnson&#8217;s book focuses on public libraries in the USA North East, but the cases she discusses, and examples she gives can be applied to the whole country, and much of it can extend to many other types of libraries. Through the book she discusses the initial pains of migrating information to emerging technologies, working hard to reach out to new users, coming up with creative programing, and the painful adjustments many librarians have had to deal with during this economic downturn.</p>
<p>In the book you will read about the Connecticut librarians who challenged the Patriot Act, an academic librarian who has an amazing zine collection, librarians who have migrated to Second Life, and the fascinating networks they have formed. You&#8217;ll also read about an archivist who boxes and how this very detail made him the perfect candidate to save a large boxing collection in Miami. Johnson also talked to the &#8220;dog&#8221; librarians, and several librarians at NYPL.</p>
<p>The chapter on what is happening at NYPL really stuck with me, and it&#8217;s a situation that is being replicated all over. Basically the financial crisis has forced them to reevaluate how the library runs, who their main users are, and how they may best serve them with reduced funds. Here Johnson interviews librarians working on new technologies, another one who loves helping authors do research, a couple more that have begun courting local artists and showing them what treasures the libraries has for them. She also spoke to a few librarians who&#8217;s departments have been eliminated and job descriptions have been significantly altered. Many of these librarians express concern about the patrons they had served, and the collections they have come to know so well, while questioning if their expertise will really be of most service in their new positions.</p>
<p>Throughout the book Johnson also shares her experiences learning about the field. She comments on the librarian who taught her now to store screen shots, instead of trying to book mark everything she liked on the web. She also talked about a course she took on archival practices, and tells us about her learning curve with new tools in the field.</p>
<p>The book is a very quick, thoroughly enjoyable read, and Johnson&#8217;s praise for librarians, archivists, and so called &#8220;cybrarians&#8221; is music to this librarian&#8217;s ears!</p>

<p><span style="color: #888888;">Recogí una copia sin corregir de este libro mientras asistía a ALA Midwinter, y lo disfruté muchísimo. <a href="http://marilynjohnson.net/">Marilyn Johnson</a> inicialmente se interesa en el mundo de las bibliotecas mientras hacia investigación para su libro anterior sobre los obituarios. Ahí se tropezó con varios anuncios fascinantes basados en la vida de bibliotecarios. La autora podrá haber empezado este proyecto después de interesarse por ciertos bibliotecarios particulares, pero pero esta claro que está fascinada con el mundo de las bibliotecas, su personal, y todo el concepto de compartir información de forma gratuita. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El libro de Johnson se centra en las bibliotecas públicas en el noreste de EE.UU. pero los casos que discute y los ejemplos que da se puede aplicar a todo el país, y muchos pueden extenderse a muchos otros tipos de bibliotecas. A través del libro Johnson nos cuenta de los dolores iniciales de la migración de información a  nuevas tecnologías, el arduo trabajando para llegar a nuevos usuarios, como organizar programación creativa, y los dolorosos ajustes que muchos bibliotecarios han tenido que vivir durante esta recesión económica.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">En el libro usted leerá acerca de los bibliotecarios de Connecticut que impugnaron el Patriot Act, un bibliotecario académico que tiene una colección asombrosa de mini revistas (zines), los bibliotecarios que han emigrado a Second Life, y las redes profesionales tan fascinantes que se hayan formado. También leerá acerca de un archivero quien boxea y cómo este detalle lo convirtió en el candidato perfecto para guardar una gran colección sobre el boxeo en Miami. Johnson también habló con la bibliotecarios para &#8220;perros&#8221; bibliotecarios y varios bibliotecarios en la biblioteca publica de Nueva York (NYPL).</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El capítulo sobre lo que está sucediendo en NYPL fue el que mas me impacto, y es una situación que se repite en todas partes. Básicamente, la crisis financiera ha obligado a revaluar cómo funciona la biblioteca, quienes son sus principales usuarios, y cómo se puede prestar mejores servicios con fondos reducidos. Aquí Johnson entrevista bibliotecarios que trabajan con tecnologías emergentes, otro bibliotecaria que le encanta ayudar a los autores haciendo investigación para sus libros, un par de jóvenes que han comenzado a cortejar a artistas locales y les muestra los tesoros que bibliotecas tiene para ellos. También entrevisto a varios bibliotecarios de departamentos que han sido eliminados y a quienes les han cambiado sus obligaciones laborales. Muchos de estos bibliotecarios expresan preocupación por sus usuarios, y las colecciones que han llegado a conocer tan bien, mientras se cuestiona si su experiencia laboral será realmente aprovechada al máximo en sus nuevos trabajos.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">A lo largo del libro de Johnson también comparte sus experiencias de aprendizaje sobre el campo. Ella comenta sobre la bibliotecaria que le enseñó como capturar y almacenar imágenes de la web, en lugar de tratar de reservar la marca todas las paginas que le gustaba. También habló de un curso que tomó en las prácticas de archivo, y nos habla de su curva de aprendizaje con las nuevas herramientas en el campo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">El libro se puede leer muy rápido, es entretenido y divertido de leer, ¡y el elogio de Johnson para los bibliotecarios, archiveros, y los llamados &#8220;cybrarians&#8221; es música para los oídos de esta bibliotecaria! </span></p>
