Happy 11th birthday to LISNews, one of the best (if not THE best) sources of news for librarians.

A librarian at NPR has a book out, titled All Facts Considered. Isn't that awesome?

Also awesome: the ALA will present a new award for GLBT children's literature.

Thirdly awesome: the Dead Sea Scrolls are going to be digitized!

And now, in a belated Halloween/Day of the Dead observance, we are going to talk about zombie librarians. BRAINSSSS. Zombies like libraries. Ergo, some librarians end up zombies. But they are smart and photogenic zombie librarians, and even have their own calendar!

Tomorrow: links from others! Unless I become a zombie librarian. Then tomorrow's post might just be "sdlkgdjrthBRAINSlskturzzzz."
