For those of you who enjoy Carl Grant’s popular articles on this blog you may be interested to know that Carl has been blogging at CARE Affiliates for some time. Last July, Carl returned to Ex Libris. It took a while but Carl is now continuing his blogging at the Ex Libris corporate site.
Carl never shies away from telling us what he thinks even when what he has to say is not pleasant to hear. His newest blog article is “Libraries; A Silence That Is Deafening” and begins as follows:
During the last election campaign in the United States, there was a bumper sticker that spoke to what was happening in this country: “If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.” Fellow librarians, are we paying attention?
Here’s a list of articles Carl has written for this blog:
- Beyond Federated Search – Winning the Battle and Losing the War?
- Searching for answers about metasearch in 2009
- We don’t really need metasearch…
- We librarians need to remember what our value is in providing metasearching….
- Review: SRU, Open Data and the Future of Metasearch
- Review: Developing the right RFP for selecting your federated search product
