Cites & Insights 11: 8 (September 2011) is now available for
downloading at http://citesandinsights.info/civ11i8.pdf
The 32-page issue (PDF as usual, but each essay is available as an
HTML separate) includes:
Bibs & Blather (pp. 1-2)

    Requests for help if your public library uses Facebook, Twitter or
both, and a quick note about another tweak to C&I.

Writing about Reading: A Future of Books and Publishing (pp. 1-4)

    The Diigo tag for the items discussed here was "eb-vs.-pb," but
that's not quite right. The bulk of this lengthy Perspective considers
items that, to one extent or another, either favor ebooks over print
books, vice-versa, or--better yet--compare the two complementary
textual forms of book (not that there aren't others, e.g.,
audiobooks).

    As lagniappe, the first 3.3 pages offer a future of books and
publishing (not the future, but a future)--one set of possibilities
that I might personally find desirable, looking ten years out and
"while I'm still alive"--say 35 years out.
