#15 Rollyo

Rollyo have the potential for librarians to select good quality sites and make them avialable to the public via subject specific Rollyos. I can imagine that many people will appreciate this service as it will save valuable time on internet searching. Although internet contains gems of information you can spend a lot of time sifting through irrelevant junk before coming across reliable and good quality sites.

The Rollyo I compiled is a mixture of websites and blogs on book reviews. I started off adding just blogs and then changed my mind and added general websites as well. I found that the title space is limited. I created the search engine anonymously - didn't feel like registering - and easily found it again. (Note: the sites I added where just a few I have bookmarked and I haven't seriously considered a balanced list as this exercise was an experiment.) Another rollyo I want to create is one for maths homework, but perhaps one of my colleagues will create that one so I will wait and see.
