Comments on: How do you cite blogging vs. publishing? http://walt.lishost.org/2005/05/how-do-you-cite/ The library voice of the radical middle. Fri, 28 Mar 2014 01:05:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.8.3 By: walt http://walt.lishost.org/2005/05/how-do-you-cite/comment-page-1/#comment-165 Sat, 14 May 2005 16:47:30 +0000 http://walt.lishost.org/?p=46#comment-165 A good discussion. I don’t think there is a single satisfactory solution (any more than there’s a single satisfactory model for what does and doesn’t get included in a vita), but all of the choices suggested so far make sense.

Hmm. In my admittedly peculiar case, I’m unwilling to exclude publications where there’s noone else with the title “editor” from my publications list. Somehow, I just can’t see leaving Cites & Insights out! (And I can think of several other cases where it would be silly to leave out self-edited publications–at least one essay-oriented library weblog, Charles W. Bailey’s Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography, just to name two examples.) But, well, it all depends.

More comments invited; a great discussion that could yield an essay elsewhere…

I’ve been thinking about how people reacted at ACRL when I talked about blog and it didn’t have anything to do with writing–rather it was “oh, you can do cool web stuff.” So, I’m going to put my blog and the conference blog under a section called “Web Sites” and publications (which I’m distinguishing as the ones where someone has the title “editor” and it isn’t me) under “Publications.”

Now I just want to find a job opening with the title “Writing and Cool-Web-Stuff Librarian.”

That is not to say that non-paying positions shouldn’t go under employment. I also consider LS a job because I spend so much time on it (posting, gatheirng material for the posts, marketing, trying to find sponsors) that it feels like a full-time job.

LS is on my (outdated) CV as well, under “other activities.” I will update LS in the CV the same as in my resume. Thanks for the thoughtful discussion on the topic.

I’m glad Steven C. initiated this conversation, even if indirectly. So far, I don’t plan to put this blog on my CV at all, but that might change. And I certainly wouldn’t limit a vita to scholarly publishing; I’ve rarely seen a vita that draws such a bright line. (Sure would make my vita a lot shorter!)

But maybe it should. I think that I will list it under “Publications,” as that’s what it truly is.

Given that I’ll do that at some near date, if I was contributing to a conference blog, I’d probably add a whole new line like “Blogging Contributions: PLA Annual 2005, ALA Annual 2005″ etc. If I was writing up a report on the conference that appeared in a “publication” (in the strictest sense), I’d add that in separately with the title of the piece & the publication.

I do not consider blogging to be on par with scholarly publishing, since beyond the occasional comment feedback, there is nothing resembling peer review in a blog. However, I believe that blogging can contribute to the profession and should not be dismissed based on form. I learn from my blogging colleagues, and I hope that occasionally my contributions are useful to others.
