A thought on the library literature

Angel comments on the idea that most library literature is written by individuals to gain or maintain tenure. Actually, that's probably the case for most professions or disciplines. Academics write the articles while everyone gets on with the job. We thereby lose out on others' valuable and unique experiences and insights.

To some extent the blogosphere is helping to spread that experience around.
