"Library Boy" blog in the spotlight

Adrien, M. (2005), Library Boy, viewed on July 1 2011, http://micheladrien.blogspot.com

This blog is about legal research news from an Ottawa Law Librarian. It is written by Michel-Adrien who is a former news researcher/journalist and web producer, and a reference librarian in the federal capital (Ottawa, Canada) since Sept. '05, and is a graduate of McGill University. Whilst I cannot verify that this information is correct I can still say that this blog is of a high authoratative nature due to the content of it.
The blog is aimed at keeping you informed and would be suitable for tertiary students or anyone interested in things to do with law.
All of the links tested within the blog work and take you directly to some of the different government reports and websites. Each blog post is extensively linked to previous blog posts when necessary and also includes labels at the end of each blog post relevant to the posting. You can click on any of these label links which are more like subjects and get more information from throughout the blog.
The blog is regularly kept up to date with postings archived every month since February 2005. It contains no advertisements and is set out in an easy to read manner.


I would highly reccommend this blog to anyone interested in or studying law. It is extensive in it's posting with frequent links and great subject labels. It is extremely easy to navigate and I had no issues with any links whilst moving about the site.
