Time to retreat and reflect

As you can see I've taken a hiatus from Webliography...that's a big no-no in the world of blogging, but sometimes when you don't have anything to write about you just shouldn't write. Not that there isn't much to write about because there is. Many times the need to retreat and reflect is sidelined by the urge to get the word out. Well, I've been retreating and reflecting during the last few months. I also started another blog which was specifically for a Virtual Reference LSTA-funded project. The blog is at http://vreference.blogspot.com and tracks the progress of the Virtual Reference Desk project at the Maricopa County Library District which I think was a huge success on many levels. Visit the blog to learn how we integrated QP: 24/7 Reference into Polaris Library System's Powerpac portal. I'm going to keep tonight's post short and sweet, but expect more, more, more in the future. Also, if you're interested in the VR project, my last column that will appear in Public Libraries discusses the project and the software more in depth. I think it is the Nov/Dec 2005 issue. Stay tuned...
