I encountered this great post by Cliff Landis through this Wednesday’s workroom read-aloud rendition of American Libraries Direct. I agree with much of what he says about education, and especially about the symbiotic relationship between reference and cataloging. I did think his outright dismissal of folksonomy was a little too black-or-white, especially consider one of the things I found most interesting about the post was that one of the tags at the bottom was “user-centric service,” which is, after all, the whole point.
