Finally, a Canadian study showing the link between academic achievement and libraries and librarians. The Ontario School Library Association is certainly glad to hear this news, news they've known all along. Now, if only the funding would reflect the importance of these libraries.
odd stuff
Unknown
Questions are being raised about the possibility of a mysterious, unknown library in Iona. We have lost so much knowledge over the ages, that the possibility of finding even a scrap of it intrigues me. This can also be accounted for my other passion, Classics, including ancient libraries and archaeology. It would be simply amazing to get funding to begin an archaeological search for the lost library in Iona. I hope someone does it.

New Name
I’m thinking of changing the name of my blog. While I am wee, as my nickname suggests, I am not the only wee librarian in the blogosphere. It seems there is another blog called Wee Librarian. To avoid confusion, I am trying to think of a new, exciting, perhaps daring name for my blog, but have yet to hear the muses. I’m always open to suggestions though. Keep a look out for the change!
