As we quickly march toward the end of 2010, the pressure is mounting to produce the annual list of blogs to read in the coming year. We’ll consider any blogs that might be of interest to librarians. They need not be famous or long lived, in fact we’re always looking for NEW sites and new writers doing interesting work.
Our past lists:

Librarians Matter by Kathyrn Greenhill & Teleread
Librarians Matter isn’t a new blog, but it’s a blog I read for new ideas, new thinking. KG doesn’t post as often as many other library bloggers, but her posts always stand out to me–she never sounds like an echo, shes doesn’t repeat herself endlessly, and her content teaches me and makes me think. Hers is easily my favorite blog of those that have never appeared on this list.

Also, TeleRead for ebook news is essential, I think.
