Delicious Subject Guides: Maintaining Subject Guides Using a Social Bookmarking Site. 2008 December 21

Filed under: libraries — ecorrado @ 11:12:59

I just had a peer-reviewed article published in Partnership: the Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research, Vol 3, No 2 (2008). The article is Delicious Subject Guides: Maintaining Subject Guides Using a Social Bookmarking Site. The article is based on a project I worked on with Heather Lea Mouliason while we both worked at the The College of New Jersey Library.

I didn’t view the PDF yet, but I am happy with the way the article came out. The editors were a pleasure to work with and they, along with the anonymous reviewers, made some really good suggestions that I feel improved the article. I am also really happy to have published in this journal because I feel the Innovations in Practice section is really useful, and also because it is an Open Access journal. I have written a lot lately, so it seems pretty odd that this is actually my first sole-authored peer-reviewed journal article that I have ever written. Maybe it seems odd that this is the first one because I’ve gone through the process with some conference proceedings papers that were peer-reviewed, thus the peer-review process was not totally new to me.

Nice stuff. We’re thinking along the same lines, and this is a nice example of how it can work. Thanks for the code, too.
