Stephen Mitchell of UC Riverside wrote me the other day to ask,
Do you know of academic libraries who have done BI on the War? We’re starting to talk about it and it occurred to me that someone has probably done a nice powerpoint somewhere that we could build on.
I asked him if I could share his question here, because I think it’s a good idea, and I wonder if anyone is pursuing it. I don’t know of anything along those lines myself. I think it’s a perfect topic for teaching all aspects of information literacy and making the ideas (and the library) as relevant as can be.
So please comment if you have done BI’s concerning the War or know of anyone who has.
Stephen followed up with this list of links that he is finding useful in preparing this BI, and I thought I might as well share it here:

A blog is a web page that is easily updated with new entries going at the top of the page, often used in a persona...  Freedom of Speech in the Library WorkplaceFrom: libraryjuicepress.com Post Date: 2008-05-19 04:33:31 I don’t often blog conference programs, but this is one I want to highlight, in part because I’m hoping that it will generate some papers and activities that will be helpful to people outside the conference and I want to let people know about that possibility.
This is a program that will be being convened by Toni Samek at the Canadian Library Association in Vancouver later this month, called Inside Talk: Freedom of Speech in the Library Workplace. The speakers will be Mitch Freedman,...  Israel-Palestine conflict comes to the Turin Book FairFrom: libraryjuicepress.com Post Date: 2008-05-09 04:32:28 The L.A. Times reports that… the organizers of the this year’s Turin Book Fair made it an occasion to honor Israeli authors on the 60th anniversary of the nation’s founding, which understandably has made a lot of people angry. So, lots of boycotts of the book fair and heightened security. Yeah, it’s unfortunate that this is happening around an event that is about culture and that peaceful form of communication known as literature, but I think if I were organizing the even...
