Edublogs awards – thanks!

Thank you so much to all of the people who took the time to vote for Bright Ideas and other blogs that were nominated in the 2009 edublogs awards.

The category of Best Library/Librarian blog was taken out by the wonderful Joyce Valenza and her extremely useful “Never ending search” blog.

Bright Ideas was fortunate to be awarded “First runner up.”

Second runner up was awarded to Library Tech Musings, a stylish and entertaining blog written by fellow redhead Gwyneth Jones.

All of the blogs and wikis nominated were of an extremely high standard and the shortlists provide an excellent way to find great blogs to follow.

Best wishes for the season and hope you have a safe and happy time. Bright Ideas will be taking a break until early in the new year. Thank you to all the readers of the blog for their support and encouragement this year.

Edublogs awards 2009

How exciting! Bright Ideas has been nominated and shortlisted for an Edublogs award in the category of best librarian/library blog. The next stage is voting:  http://bit.ly/6KkyrU  People can only vote once per IP address, so you might have to vote from home rather than work.

If you would like to pass on the link to anyone interested that would be nice. It would be an award for everyone who has contributed to Bright Ideas whether it be photos or information on their blogs, wikis, etc.

Thank you to the kind souls who nominated Bright Ideas!
