Food Librarian in SLA Magazine!

Food Librarian in SLA Information Outlook

When you hear "Librarian" and "Library," you might think about your local public librarian (that's me) or college library where you spent an all-nighter and woke up drooling on a desk in the stacks.

But did you know that librarians aren't just in those places? Librarians and information professionals work in business and law offices, government agencies, news organizations, museums, and as information brokers. They are all very special indeed...and their association is SLA (Special Libraries Association).

Last week, I got an email from Carolyn Sosnowski of SLA. Turns out that Carolyn has been reading my blog and wrote about it in SLA's Information Outlook magazine (July/August 2009)! She write a column "Info Sites" that features websites of interest - both work related and fun. How cool is this?

Special note to Tuesdays with Dorie members.... My favorite part of the article is that Carolyn says, "...I learned about online baking groups, which are similar to book groups but with flour and butter!" Ain't that the truth?!

Carolyn, Thanks so much for the shout out! I'm feeling very special indeed! :)

  6. Mary that is awesome! I used to be an SLA member but now that I am in an academic library I don't get that publication, thanks for pointing us to it. It's great that more librarians will be able to enjoy your blog. Here's to new librarian readers!

  8. I've always wanted to make something like this. What kept me back was wondering if it tastes like Olive Oil. Does it?

  11. Cool! My mum used to be a special librarian but now that she's retired she's a part-time public librarian - and thinks it's way more fun!

  12. Congratulations! I belonged to SLA years ago. I've mostly always worked in special libraries. That's my preference, even though, currently, I'm working in a public library. It definitely has it's benefits -- access to cookbooks!
