Call for Reviewers, Internet Resources Column (Public Services Quarterly)
PSQ's Internet Resources Column is looking for reviewers to contribute to our next issue. The upcoming column will focus on Building the Library's Next Site.
What sites are you using to communicate with your patrons and/or your colleagues, in the library and at a distance? Have you used Drupal or an open source program to create an intranet or OPAC? Let's hear about it!
And, we are interested in learning about any other sites you find useful in your work, so please consider sharing your expertise with your colleagues.
Please submit site suggestions by Wednesday, July 8, 2009, and indicate whether or not you are willing and able to review the site yourself by August 7, 2009. Preference will be given to those sites submitted by the 8th.
