Jitendra Singh Choudhary and Laxmi Choudhary
This paper provides an insightful review of weblogs maintained by international university libraries, with a focus on understanding how they reflect and contribute to global perspectives in academic librarianship. The aim is to examine the role these weblogs play in facilitating international communication, knowledge exchange, and cultural understanding within the global academic community. Findings from this review indicate that university libraries use their weblogs not just as informational tools but as dynamic platforms for engaging with global issues, promoting cross-cultural dialogue, and showcasing their unique contributions to the wider academic discourse. Differences in approach and content among the weblogs are indicative of the varied cultural and educational contexts in which these libraries operate. The insights gained from this review are valuable for library professionals and scholars interested in the intersection of academic librarianship, digital communication, and global studies. It opens up avenues for further research, particularly in exploring the effectiveness of these weblogs in engaging international audiences and fostering a more interconnected global academic community.
