About

My name’s Steven. I started this blog because I was inspired by the examples of Jenny Levine (The Shifted Librarian) and Jessamyn West (librarian.net), and didn’t see any high-profile blogs out there for corporate librarians. Until May 4th, 2007, I was a researcher for Accenture in New York.

If you want to see my resume, e-mail me - I’m in the process of revising it.

I hope this will be a useful blog for sharing best practices, concerns and industry trends, across the general spectrum of corporate libraries.

If you have questions, things you’d like covered on this blog, etc. please feel free to fill out the contact form below:

Or, you can IM me (AIM: chorazos) or Skype me (stevenkaye).

    Hello Steven,

    I represent GLTaC, Inc., a language translation company based in Midland, Michigan. We will have a booth (451) at the SLA Info-Expo 2007 in Denver. I have a free pass that will allow someone admission to the exhibit floor for a single day. I would like to send you a copy (.pdf format) so that any librarian could attend if they are within easy travel distance of Denver. I work with many corporate librarians who request translation of the documents they find in Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. back into English, as well as going from English to over 70 languages. Without exception the librarians are knowledgeable and friendly to work with, and I would just like to give someone a price break if they wanted to attend, but felt they couldn’t afford the cost of admission - on top of the gas it takes to get there!

    Best regards,

    Doug Strock
    V.P. Market Development
    GLTaC, Inc.

    Hello. I am an independent researcher and am trying to find a journal called Synfuels Week for a client. Although the Library of Congress is listed as having this publication, it has been discarded. Similarly World Cat lists 5 libraries with the title, with 1 corporate library owning it. I called the corporate library and found out that they had discarded it. I wondered if there might be other corporate libraries in the oil/fuel business that might have back copies for my client (a Ph.D. student needing the back issues for his research). I stumbled upon your site and thought it might be worth a try. If anyone might have this publication in their collection, please contact me at peggyannbrown@verizon.net. Thank you.

    Hello Steven,

    I just wanted to let you know about a new resource available for Corporate Librarians called Reuters Knowledge (www.reutersknowledge.com). We’ll be at SLA if anyone wants to find out more information.
