I was discussing with a librarian how may advocate for the dissolution of
libraries, and how senior staff are not being replaced when they retire.
Honestly, the best discoveries I have made as part of my phd research did
not come from google books or google scholar or blogs or twitter feeds, they
came from responses to questions to seasoned specialist librarians.

The article I was given speaks is a review of Google Scholar by this journal
and it discusses the good, the bad and the ugly, worth a read to all!
