I have decided to take a page from Bookninja and do a news roundup. The reason is quite simple, my Twitter account has become cluttered. It should supplement this blog, not subvert it. It must be really annoying to be in the middle of one of my twitter spews. So, hurray! New feature! This should be posted almost every weekday.
So, what was in the news yesterday?
Book News:
-Diary that inspired Go Down, Moses discovered. Via NY Times.
Library Stuff:
-Library of Congress is closed! Pesky Snow! Via LOC Twitter.
-Worldcat.org gives you the power to make a list widget. Look for some here soon! Via Worldcat.org's blog.
- NYPL book chats The Shadow of the Wind.
This is the industry:
-Its the market stupid! E-booksellers should think about E-book buyers. Via NY Times.
Copyrights:
- An older Cory Doctorow piece on copyright.
- Canadian copyright group backtracks, result a more sane set of recommendations. Via Boing Boing.
