WOW! What a great collection. While I was familiar with many of them (PLA, WebJunction, Library Job Postings, 100 Best and CLiC), others were entirely new. Lots to explore here. I did delve into the 100 Best which reminded me that I'd better try to remember the password for the Blogger account I set up; many of these blogs are on my account that I've not kept up with in a LONG time.
I enjoyed exploring the Resource Shelf, which had everything from library legal issues to a few more eclectic topics: 100 Hilarious College Courses that Really Exist and A New Online Guide to Hearing Aids.
Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki was organized similar to our staff Wiki, so I found it easy to navigate, but was disappointed with the Programming (esp. for kids & teens) section which had only one success story and no real "new" ideas. The Readers' Advisory area did contain a lot of helpful information not only about starting a book club, but also how to chose books, talk about them and Writing Reviews for Open WorldCat! I will probably use both of these sites (in addition to a few others) in the future.
