Carnegie Mellon University's Librarian News page frequently lists "interesting new books" - and, more often than not, an MIT Press book is on the list. This time around it's Robotics: Science and Systems III.
But it got us to thinking about academic library blogs, and how many academic libraries have them, and what they are about. It wasn't long before we found (through Blogging Library Wiki) a list of over 400 Academic Library Blogs.
Some highlights:
Yale's Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Poetry at Beinecke Library news.
"California Policy Inbox" from the University of California, Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies Library
"Transforming Scholarly Communication" (about open access, scholarly publishing, copyright and other issues) from the University of Houston
"Reading Girl Speaks" from the Oberlin College Library
Smithsonian Libraries news
MIT Library News
University of Waterloo's Musagetes Architectural Library news
Harvard's Kennedy School Library Blog (links to some great research websites)
Philadelphia University Library's "Get it at Gutman"
University of Pisa History & Philosophy Library news
University of North Texas Dallas Campus Virtual Library Blog.
