Electronic Resource Review Blog from Nina Platt

I picked up on this from Slaw a few days ago,when Connie rightly recognized that supporting fellow entrepreneurial librarians (anyone got a list?) is a good thing. So I'm happy to relay that Nina Platt, owner and principal at Nina Platt Consulting, Inc., has another added another top-notch blog to her publishing network, Electronic Resource Review.

Nina already has two very popular blogs, Strategic Librarian and The Law Firm Intranet. But in amidst her writing on marketing, strategy, and planning, she discovered there are certain topics she “just can’t leave alone.” She saw potential for Electronic Resource Review, whose tagline is “news about new and existing electronic resources worth knowing about". How's that for good news?

Nina’s first couple of posts cover KM tools, company research services, and Google's recent newspaper digitization project. There won't be any shortage of material I imagine. The number of electronic resources available isn't exactly on a decline, and there seems to be a dearth of quality review websites, I think... So, go Nina! Well done. :)

Nina Platt, Librarian Leader & New Law Blogger

The value of law blogs can only increase when thought leaders like Nina Platt and her new blog Strategic Librarian come online. Over the years, Nina's writing has become very well known and respected by law librarians and KM professionals alike. And if you look at the quality of Nina's first posts, it seems we're all about to benefit from her smaller and more regular contributions.

For those of you with an RSS reader, I'd expect you'll be interested in this. Right? :-)

I also can't help but feel a bit of kinship here. Similar to my own situation, after many years of working in law firms, Nina's now exposing her skill set to the rest of the legal market with her new company Nina Platt Consulting, Inc. I wish her the best of luck, and reserve the right to update this post when her new company website comes online.
