About two weeks ago I was interviewed by Sarah Long, the Director of the North Suburban Library System in Chicago, for her Longshots podcast. Mostly we talk about library blogging and how to tell if your blog is successful. You can listen to it and other episodes on the Library Beat web site.
Thanks for posting this. Gave me some great information (blog comments part really hit home) and some great ideas for another blog (customer comments – wow that is such a wonderful customer service idea).
