[...] Jessamyn West posted a link to The Usable Library – basically a small site hightlighting things that make a library usable with some very good advice. [...]

And the crowd goes wild! Succinct, people-centered, kind. Genius.
Just printed out the poster and hung it on my wall…then sent the link to my boss…
