NEXGENLIB

One of the first really useful library professional related websites I found when I started library school was the Google group NEXGENLIB. It describes itself as a, "Discussion group for young, young-at-heart, and forward thinking libraryfolk." It seems like there's a good cross section of users from current MSLIS students to professionals. Discussion threads have ranged from job postings, to professional and ethical questions, to interview and coursework advice. The users seem friendly and genuinely eager to help out fellow librarians, so it's a good place to ask any library related questions.

You can find out more about it and sign up by going to Google groups and searching for the group "nexgenlib." You can also click on the following link to take you to the NEXGENLIB page: http://groups.google.com/group/NEXGENLIB?hl=en
