The Carnival Is Coming!

A blog carnival is a a regular review meant to highlight new and bright shining stars among the blog community in a particular subject area. Typically the carnival moves around, hosted by a different blog each time. I will soon be hosting two such carnivals on my personal blog :

Carnival of the Infosciences #67 – I am hosting the next carnival on Monday, March 19th. Please submit your suggestions for library and information sciences blog posts by Sunday, March 18th. I need you to keep open your eyes and ears! Find and send me the best, brightest, most exciting blog posts you see in the next two weeks. You can either send your submissions to me directly at connieblog@sympatico.ca or via the Carnival’s submission form. In the meantime, please visit Carnival of the Infosciences #66 hosted by Joshua Neff at The Goblin in the Library.

Blawg Review #105 – I will have the esteemed honour of hosting the Blawg Review, the carnival for law blogs, on April 23rd to celebrate World Book and Copyright Day (also known as International Day of the Book or World Book Day) a yearly event organized by UNESCO to promote reading, publishing and the protection of intellectual property through copyright. Incidentally, I got a kick out of the write-up that the elusive Editor of the Blawg Review did of Blawg Review #98, noting I was shut out from the “America’s hottest law librarians” poll over at Above the Law by virtue of being Canadian. I may not be included in the poll, but you still can vote for your favourites (male and female). I note law librarian blogger Bonnie Shucha has been nominated. Hee hee.
