This semester I made an attempt to talk about dissemination and how it relates to information science and librarianship. I discussed some traditional approaches to dissemination: information policy, library ethics, and patron privacy. But I discussed some off-the-cuff topics such as: library blogs, library outreach. I even touched on choosing a better web browser (Choose Firefox!), dating in a library and who to call in an emergency (Ask-a-Librarian).
This was only a small look from a beginning student. There is so much more to discuss in the information science and dissemination field that a semester of studies can be dedicated to this.
I hope it has been interesting for you and that you have taken away a little something from this experience. I know I have!
Thank you for visiting!!

A very cursory look at how information is disseminated by librarians and information professionals by a third semester library student who is well-known as the person who "spreads information" (a.k.a. the one with the big mouth).
Purpose
This blog will serve as a unique look at information science dissemination and possible tools that can help librarians and other professionals reach their targeted audience.
About me: Traci H. Ragas
My background is not in library and information science. In fact, I've spent my entire working career in the criminal justice system, with nearly eight years working in a community outreach and public relations capacity. IMHO, this have given me a unique perspective on how information is relayed to others and how information can be shared. Thus, my desire to study dissemination and hopefully parlay that into library and information science.
