Del.icio.us: #13

A few weeks into my position as a children's librarian, I realized that my department used to collect children's reference Web site urls in a binder that sat on the ready reference shelf behind the desk. I thought it would be more efficient to have the collection of links directly accessible from the computer, so I created a del.icio.us account for my department to use.

It's very easy to update and organize, doesn't take up any physical space, and is accessible from any computer with an Internet connection. Each staff member in the children's department has bookmarked our del.icio.us account, and I've shared the url with the adult reference staff as well, just in case they ever get stumped by a children's reference question. So far, it's been very useful!
