• Taming the Beast  By: Richardson, Will. School Library Journal, Mar2007, The article focuses on the advantages of using social bookmarking websites such as Del.icio.us and CiteULike and Conotea. The sites enable librarians and other computer users who come across resources such as text, audio, or video on the Internet that they want to access and use again to save them.  Taming the Beast Richardson.pdf

•  All Together Now from School Library Journal, January 2007, The article looks at how social bookmarking offers a new way to store and share Web sites. Social bookmarking allows multiple users to save their favorite Web sites, articles, and even podcasts on the Web, instead of inside your brower. According to the article, social bookmarking is becoming a popular way for teachers and students to store, classify, share, and search links which are gathered by many users. The article discusses how librarians can use this tool.   social bookmarking slj.pdf
