Originally I started this blog as a place for reflection when studying for a PgCLT, well you can see how that went! I'm now expanding it to include: http://cpd23.blogspot.com/ and other work related learning.
One of my main problems with blogging is maintaining enthusiasm for it, I've created several over the years for different purposes, but I find it time consuming to create worthwhile posts, read others blogs and then the whole 'quid pro quo' of comments is also an issue, especially when there are so many other priorities (work and home). I suspect it is prioritisation and time management that is the real issue, not the blogging per se. So having said all that I'm really looking forward to #cpd23and this old lag is hoping to get some positive tips from new professionals and others who are all dedicated and enthusiastic librarians and seem to use blogging and other tools to great effect.
