    Nancy Foasberg wrote a new post, Thoughts and Doubts on Transliteracy, on the site A Librarian's Folly 1 year ago

    I appear to be a bad blogger, or at least, not a very prolific one.   Hmm. Perhaps I can do better.

    There’s a post that I began writing late last semester and never finished, after seeing Lane Wilkinson’s <a […]

    Nancy Foasberg wrote a new blog post: Public Domain in the Future 1 year, 8 months ago

    ( Note: I’m not a copyright expert.  If I’ve made any factual errors here, please feel free to point them out. ) Last month, I spent a lot of time putting together an exhibit on the public domain.   It was a very interesting process for many reasons. I’d initially planned to organize it based on date. I wanted [...]

    Well, what I really wanted was the link to my blog. The one I’m trying to comment on requires me to sign in and there wasn’t a good way to do that.

    I’m a little frustrated I can’t figure this out, but I wanted to comment on a Blogger blog outside the commons, but because the URL here is different from the standard Wordpress URL, I can’t sign in with my Wordpress ID in the usual way. Can anyone give me a hint how to do it?

    Nancy Foasberg wrote a new blog post: How is a Writing Center like a Reference Desk? 2 years ago

     In another lifetime, I was a writing teacher.  I taught first-year composition, and, before that, I worked in a writing center. In fact, a writing center is where I really started to learn about teaching.  This means that I still think of learning through a writing-centric lens at many times, and that I have [...]

    Nancy Foasberg commented on the blog post Romanticizing the book? 2 years ago

As for breaking up books, well, some books can obviously be broken up much more easily than others. But let’s look at the use case here… A student (and I’m pretty uncomfortable with calling them consumers) needs to [...]

    Nancy Foasberg wrote a new blog post: Romanticizing the book? 2 years ago

    I know, I know. Blogging is supposed to be timely, and it’s already been a long time since ACRL.  But I wanted to write about the Jaron Lanier keynote, and despite delays, I will. This April, I attended ACRL for the second time. I like conferences in general, and I’m fond of ACRL in particular. [...]
