Indeedy. Almost every forum, group, community I've ever been involved with has asked a question that needed a librarian to answer it, no matter whether the group was music or figure skating. I was going to join MeFi a long while back, back in the days when I spent too much time at kuro5hin and plastic (whatever happened to those!) but then there was the new member freeze and then the new member charge. But your article may have convinced me to shell out the cash. “The trick is making sure that librarians are some of the people they know.”
