Thing 19 - Bookmarking

I had my field day on the Delicious web site and set up the account with the ambition to create a library of psychoanalytic bookmarks. I've so far "clipped" several sites with psychoanalytic book and journal resources, and started a list of Freud museums and archives, check here to see my work in progress. I eventually hope to create a useful resource page for our library: currently all these links sit in the related sections on various collection web pages, and they not very visible that way. I could also finally integrate and annotate all archives out there that are related to ours. A relatively small archive as we are, we have many collections that are pieces of the larger archives stored elsewhere, and social bookmarking could help us recreate that whole picture for each particular collection. With online archival services like Harvard OASIS , cross-referencing becomes much needed and often required. I could see how "clipping" could make our web sites more dynamic and in touch with reality. Very few people use our library catalogs, but hey, something better is on the way.
