Zitawikis

I really must remind myself of keeping wiki fed.... and brag about it.....ok, that should be BLOG about it.
So, bogging along:
Today, I added one entry to recipes library wiki--- uploaded an image taken with my camera (in my kitchen for inspiration).
Ideas? on wiki applications--- use wiki to create meeting agendas (Library Council, for example) ?

RRS FEEDING TODAY


Nothing better to do? or do you have a learning objective to complete? Wander around in blogging land. You'll know then that there are lots of learning opportunities and lots of time wasters. ... the beauty is you can choose. A few that I selected are listed here: http://www.bloglines.com/public/zitafeedsblog

If we can encourage students and faculty to "check out" Library web pages, then there is indeed value in adding and promoting Library feeds in more ways .

Tioram stories and connections?

Tioram--- castle almost in the sky....
Intersted in sharing information on a Scottish castle ?
Many stories are yet to be heard. A story that we recently uncovered is that my grandmother's family was connected in some way to Castle Tioram, ruins located on west coast of Scotland. Commonly, Toiram is identified as the ancestral home of Clan Randanald. My Gram , was a branch off the old MacDonad family tree. So you can imagine the pathways that such a story can take one, tracng the Macdonalds from highland Scotland to shores of PEIsland.
bibliographic references (hey, I'm a librarian!) to follow.... and photos.
