</script>(Although I graduated with my LIS and my classes ended in Dec. 2007, it may be helpful to visit the links to my Online Reference classmates’ blogs. They had been posting really great insights into the library world and are an absolute joy to read. Scroll to the bottom of this page to get the URLs.)
