The Creative Librarian is a hub for matters important to librarians/information scientists of today. There is a definite lean towards electronic issues, however it isn't restricted to only those. Hopefully this site will also be useful for informing non-librarians on these issues as so many of them affect us all.

Libraries in Second Life Presentation

LibrarianInBlack: Getting staff to understand libraries and Second Life

Kathryn Greenhill has created a fabulous presentation, available on Slideshare, about the role of libraries and librarians in the Second Life online game environment. Greenhill does a great job of explaining what Second Life is and how libraries can choose to fit in to this overall picture of online gaming (or not). She also includes lots of screenshots of Second Life, so people can see what it actually looks like.

If you find yourself struggling to explain why Second Life fits in to your library’s mission, this may be a good place to direct staff.

I second that.
