Are you thinking about how to build your library’s online image? Here is a very clever idea. The Mosman Library has launched a great challenge:

We’re pitting Mosman Library’s online reference collection against what you can find from the search box on the world wide web!

Each day during Library & Information Week we’ll be posting a question that represents the range of queries that we get at Mosman Library.

Our Reference Librarian Jane B will represent Mosman Library. She’ll use only Mosman Library’s electronic resources to answer the question.

Our Internet & IT Services Librarian Ken D will represent the search engine. He’ll use only freely-available web resources to formulate his answer.

I will follow the event closely.
