This network is for Atlantic Librarians, defined in its broadest sense. How broadly? Well, if you live in, want to live in, once lived in, or have friends who live in Atlantic Canada and you play or work in a library then you qualify.

Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki
Welcome to Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki. This wiki was created to be a one-stop shop for great ideas and information for all types of librarians. All over the world, librarians are developing successful programs and doing innovative things with technology that no one outside of their library knows about. There are lots of great blogs out there sharing information about the profession, but there is no one place where all of this information is collected and organized. That's what we're trying to do.In the Library with the Lead Pipe
In the Library with the Lead Pipe is intended to help improve our communities, our libraries, and our professional organizations. Our goal is to explore new ideas and start conversations; to document our concerns and argue for solutions. Each article is peer-reviewed by at least one external and one internal reviewer.Public libraries - Blogging Libraries

New Look!
That said, I don't want to be accused of being "Nova-centric." So, if you got a good picture you want to share, let me know and I'll create a banner out of it for a while. Or if you don't want me doing a hack job of your photo, why not just add it to your "photos" and share it to the front page.
