I left a comment...I'm curious about the connection he draws between disagreeing with LJ's promotion of the AL, and the use of Movers & Shakers to promote oneself. David?
- Jason Griffey
I'll be curious to hear what David says about that. I think that there would be a bit of a disconnect if the same person is saying "LJ editorial standards are crap because they publish the AL" and "I am proud to have the LJ editors' seal of approval as a Mover and Shaker."
- s t e v e
Erm. If LJ editorial standards are crap, I'm in trouble, 'long of how I've been published there and all.
- D0r0th34
I don't think I'd say that LJ's editorial standards are crap...even though I DO disagree with them publishing the AL. But that said, I really see M&S as an award from my peers...someone had to nominate me (probably several someones). But maybe that's me over-parsing my personal part of it. Plus, what Dorothea said...
- Jason Griffey
Well, note that I said "*if* someone is saying that." I'm not personally concerned about it, but that's what I think David is saying. He also says that LJ publishes lots of stuff that reflects badly on librarians.
- s t e v e
Wonderful. I keep thinking whether I should try to say something about this whole event, and David's done such a fine job here that I probably won't. Doubt that I'll do any vlogs, but I sure liked this one. (And I've commented at David's blog, to close the circle.)
- Walt Crawford
Well, and I quibble with the idea that LJ is a library-propaganda arm constrained to publish only "rah-rah libraries!" stuff. Some of the stuff librarians do is bogus. If LJ reports that, more power to LJ.
- D0r0th34
And this is the answer? Yup. Right on David!
- ɥsıuɐʎɹ
Weak editorial standards can still allow in good stuff- and there *is* good stuff in LJ. There's also a lot of crap.
- David Rothman (☤)
Barbara Fister. Andrew Albanese (before he moved to PW, sigh). Peter Jaczo. They publish better stuff than American Libraries at present.
- D0r0th34
Wondering if AL will be nominated or receive M&S for 2010...would be kind of like when Time was going to give Man of the Year to Osama bin Laden. Time's comment: "He is not a larger than life figure with broad historical sweep...he is smaller than life, a garden-variety terrorist whose evil plan succeeded beyond his highest hopes."

Best thing I've watched online in ages! :) I honestly can't say that I disagree with anything you said there. I totally wrote off M&S after they honored a certain master of sock-puppetry (though I probably should have sooner).
- Meredith
In addition to praising the content (with which I can't find fault), I also want to say that I've never quite gotten the point of videos that are just a talking head...why not just write down what you have to say? Except, now I get it. Bravo.
- Catherine Pellegrino
Ditto Catherine! I've never been much of a video person. This is everything a video blog post should be, but usually isn't.
- Meredith
Catherine, I had the same reaction. Usually I feel like, "I just want to read your words at my own pace. Please no video." This piece convinced me that sometimes it's worth it to hit Play. :)
- Rachel Walden
It was so helpful to have all of David's inflections and mannerisms the occasional silly face. It would have come across quite differently in print, I think.
- marthalib
What Rachel, Catherine, Marthalib and Meredith just said. Damn, there are a lot of smart female librarians on FF. (Maybe that's because there are a lot of smart...oh, never mind.)
- Walt Crawford
Yeah, it transmits all of those non-verbal cues quite nicely that we wouldn't have gotten with just the text. Plus, I made it through David's entire video without wanting to stop it. That wasn't a bad way to spend roughly 7 minutes.
- Peter Murray
David, I wish there was a non-award that I could "nominate" you for. 'Cause that was your greatest video ever.

- David Rothman (☤)
This was great. Part of me wonders, though, how honest and forthright some folks (maybe not you) would be with criticism of Library 101 if the AL hadn't been so snarky about it in the first place. But that doesn't detract from how much I enjoyed this. Thanks, David.
- Joan
I think that if AL hadn't been so snarky then ppl who found the video lame would probably have looked at the *intention* of the project - to work together to discuss essential skills for librarians given the technological/social climate- and put their energy there instead of discussing whether low blows and rudeness are appropriate professional skills.
- Kathryn says love n peace

Whatever your views, you have to realize that DR wants to suppress certain forms of expression, while LJ tries to find things to publish. Surely librarians believe in the LJ way. Ad Hominem comment is not new to librarianship. I remember when the gret Jesse Shera said the great Lawrence Clark Powell acted like "a butterfly in heat."
- John Berry
HAH! That's pretty funny, Mr. Berry. No, I don't want to suppress anything. Shera's comments were ATTRIBUTED TO HIM. I think you make your trade mag look even worse than it is by publishing nasty remarks from an unidentified author, that's all. Thanks, though, for trying to cast me as pro-censorship! That'll give a lot of people I know a really good chuckle. :)
- David Rothman (☤)
I just noticed something, John (may I call you John?): Did you seriously sign up for FriendFeed just to leave that one silly comment? http://friendfeed.com/johnber...
- David Rothman (☤)
One last thought. John Berry wrote that "LJ tries to find things to publish." Try harder, dude. There's LOTS of great writing you could've decided to publish- but in order to get as many clicks as possible, you went for the lowest common denominator: pseudonymous nastiness.
- David Rothman (☤)
Is that really John Berry? Or is there a sock puppet among us?
- Katy S
Katy++. JBerry isn't the hit-and-run type, I don't think; he ought to know better by now.
- D0r0th34
I'd like to think that the real John Barry recognizes the difference between solid criticism & suppression. I mean, that's a college freshman-level argument.
