Vast Active Library and Information Science blog. From a recent library science graduate in Wellington, New Zealand. A focus on reference and current awareness tools and issues, especially free, web-based resources.

 
Rochelle writes about the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) labour dispute, and how blogs and podscasts are being used by staff to put across their point of view, while management has shut down their email addresses. But blogging isn't just being used to gain publicity for one side of the dispute, but for communication between sides:

"the blogs are even one way of communicating across the sides of this lock out: staff are reading the blogs of managers, managers are reading the blogs of staff."
