    The Tech Static, a new technology-related book review outlet and collection development resource for librarians launching this November, is soliciting article queries. Current needs include:

    * Advice on weeding technology-related titles
    * Overviews of “hot” new technologies, software, applications, certifications, or new releases for which libraries should stock updated guides
    * Discussion of ways to fund useful collections of technology titles
    * Suggestions of what types of professional technology titles to stock for staff’s reference and development
    * Series overviews and recommendations for library purchasing
    * Any other advice, how-tos, or “how-we-did-it-good” articles related to collection development in the area of technology.

    Experience with collection development in this area, or with newer technologies, library tech support, or other technological background a plus. Email your queries to rachel@thetechstatic.com.
