Social Bookmariking Project: Call for Participants

(courtesy MidContinental Regional News)

For those of you in the MidContinental Region (Utah, Colorad, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri), Sharon Dennis, Technology Coordinator, and Rebecca Brown, Technology Liaison, are asking for volunteers to participate in a regional social bookmarking project. Social bookmarking is a Web 2.0 tool. Delicious is a social bookmarking site that allows you to bookmark a web page and add tags to categorize your bookmarks. Delicious can be used to tag any site that you feel is pertinent to your professional work and also of interest to medical librarians throughout the region.

If you are interested in learning more about this project, please e-mail Sharon at
sdennis[atsign]lib[dot]med[dot]utah[dot]edu or Rebecca at rbrown3[atsign]kumc[dot]edu.

I posted a comment on Twitter the other day about creating a medical library delicious account or use another social bookmarking software. It would be great for the MLA to create an account, so that anytime websites are referenced in JMLA, MLANET.ORG, or other places they can easily be found on the delicious account. It also helps to have all of the sites handy, and would probably cut back on questions on Medlib. I'm glad to see one group is working on this. I wish I had more time to devote to this kind of project but as a solo-librarian... time is very limited.

TY~ Alisha Miles, MLIS
