Cites & Insights 5:10 (September 2005) available

August 12, 2005 - 1:09am — Walt

Cites & Insights 5:10, September 2005 is now available for downloading--or you can reach individual essays in HTML form from the Cites & Insights home page.

A light & fluffy summer issue would be perfect right about now--but this 24-page issue, with a total of four essays, probably isn't it. (I address that issue in "Bibs & Blather.")

What's here:

  • Bibs & Blather -- the usual nonsense
  • Perspective: Investigating the Biblioblogosphere -- looking into 238 "library people" blogs, with detailed metrics and brief comments on 60 of them. Not the top 50 (and there are 60), but maybe a top 50 in certain questionable respects...
  • Perspectives: Summertime Blahs -- two perspectives in one essay. "Iconoclasm and the Great God Google" comments on--well, Web4Lib readers will know. "Creative Commons: Foe of Copyright?" recounts some remarkable attacks on the Creative Commons concept.
  • ©2 Perspective: Orphan Works -- background from the Copyright Office inquiry into this important topic and some notes on the 700+ comments received.
