		<description><![CDATA[Is everyone ready for a vacation about now? I know I am. It is break week on campus and it is like a ghost town around here. On the one hand this means that I am able to get a lot of work done that gets shoved to the side during the academic quarter, but on the other hand it makes me even more anxious to be on vacation. Plus there are less than 3 weeks left in this year (and decade) which makes me feel like I should get about a dozen projects done both at the library and at home. So if you are like me, a feel the need to do something, then this is the post for you.  ...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=847&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, so I know that it is kind of hokey to have a holiday themed post, but I was watching the Vlogbrothers' video below and thought it was superb and I should think about what I'm thankful for in terms of libraries and librarians. Take a look at the video below and then let me know what you are thankful for when it comes to libraries.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=811&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, this week has been crazy and it is only Wednesday. So much to do, so much information to process and catalog, and so little time! So this problem got me thinking about findability. Don't you think that part of the reason for information overload is not just that there is so much information out there, but that there it is also difficult to organize all the information so you can actually find it again when you need it? I do. So here are some really interesting bits of news and tools to help you control the information you have in your life. ...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=781&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What does "good enough" mean to you? Are you comfortable with experimentation at work and just seeing what happens? Or do you want your work to be perfect before you share it with the world? I think, obviously, I'm kind of in the first camp and happy with beta testing. This is the theme of today's post: being "good enough" in various contexts. ...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=748&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Luckily my university is on the quarter system so I have another month to prepare. But in the vein of back-to-school time, here are some interesting articles to check out about college, dropout rates and other stuff. ...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=733&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It honestly doesn't seem to make much difference if I'm teaching a class or taking a class, the end of the quarter is still filled with anxiety, last minute chores and lots of panicked students. It also means that I fall behind on bookmarking new web stuff, blogging about new web stuff, and basically just fall a little behind. So here is my attempt at catching up on some of the cool library and tech stuff that has been floating around my RSS feeds--basically just a little of this and a little of that.... <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=667&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to say that I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that <em><a href="http://lisjobs.com/career_trends/">Info Career Trends</a></em> is going on indefinite hiatus. I think it is one of the best places to go for articles about all sorts of facets of library careers, work and advice. Thank goodness that the back issues will remain on the web, along with feeds from other parts of the blog. So in honor of ICT, I had to talk a little about two of the articles that come from the last issue and touch home for those of us who are new and/or work in academia... <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=630&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think a lot about reading and college. This is not surprising considering I work at an academic library. However, I think that I just might be obsessing a little more than usual lately. At my library, we are trying to conserve paper and printer toner to a greater extent than we already do. So I'm sitting, staring at my computer screen even more than usual and pondering issues at the academy when my mind wanders as I try to read yet another pdf online.... <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thewakilibrarian.wordpress.com&blog=4733282&post=618&subd=thewakilibrarian&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I know that isn't super impressive, but I'm amazed that I've written that much and that you, faithful reader, are still reading. I don't have anything special planned for this post, just the usual assortment of helpful techie stuff and some library news....
