The good news is that over the past few weeks I seem to have collected a nice list of blog feeds on my Bloglines account relating to libraries/books/children's & teen literature, and that it's fun, quick, and convenient to check them--they're all in one place, and I can skim the titles and decide which ones I want to read all the way through.
The bad news is that I'm not exactly sure how I amassed the list.
Neither the Bloglines nor the Google nor the Technorati search tools seemed to have a quick, simple way to find a list of library-related blogs, so mostly I found a bunch of blogs I liked and then looked at the sites they linked to. I also subscribed to the Bloglines Quick Picks "Books" package, so now I'm reading the NY Times book reviews and the Globe and Mail arts news on a regular basis.
I have a special soft spot for the book blogs maintained by librarians and other enthusiasts, though. My favorite blog title? Bookshelves of Doom, which focuses on teen literature and also on challenges to books in libraries and schools. Recently she linked to a librarian's thoughtful response to a book challenge. Pretty inspiring.

Wouldn't it be nice if we just had the time to look at everything that interests us!! I'm not sure if it keeps us more informed or more frustrated.
