Programming Librarian’s Top Ten Lists for 2011

Angela Hanshaw | December 22, 2011

Lists are an end-of-year staple, so it’s time Programming Librarian offered some of its own. I decided to compile the year’s top ten most-read feature articles and blog posts, fully expecting most (if not all) of them to be from 2011. I was delighted to discover, however, that you are still finding the wealth of information we offer on the site even if it hasn’t been highlighted on the home page in quite a while. Three of the features, and four of the blog posts, were from 2009 or 2010.

I wasn’t surprised by the topics represented in the top ten lists, however. In this economy, it seems obvious that librarians would be searching for ways to advocate for their libraries, develop programs on a budget, and receive free programming kits. And, of course, until the Twilight frenzy finally wears off, vampires will be a hot topic.

Without further ado, here are our most-read feature articles for 2011:

And our top ten most-read blog posts:

Thank you to all of you who continue to visit our site. Have a wonderful new year full of interesting, innovative, and well-attended programs!
