"Look Out Honey, 'Cause I'm Using Technology," is a line in a 1973 song by Iggy Pop and the Stooges. It's also the title of a delightful blog by Jenny Arch, a public librarian who has worked in both adult services and youth services. Arch's blog will appeal to two audiences. First, fellow librarians will enjoy her thoughtful reflections about her work, which includes a recent post about providing services for patrons with low vision or hearing loss and another recent post about what customer service means in a library setting. Second, book lovers (along with parents and teachers of young book lovers) will also enjoy this blog, which is full of thematic book recommendations and short reviews. For instance, Arch recently posted about her favorite books read in 2017, dividing her list into children's/teen books, adult fiction, and adult nonfiction. Arch also recently posted a series of quotes from books that she read in 2017, offering readers a unique way to learn about new books. Other topics addressed in this blog include early childhood literacy and the art of creating a good library display.
