Thursday linkdump

I'm not sure if this if going to be a regular feature in this blog, but I thought I'd share some interesting posts gathered from my readings of business-related blogs.

• Attracting the twentysomething worker
• Money and Ethics: How you stack up (quiz)
• The Ignorance of Crowds
• Obsession with the competition is a luxury of the over-funded
• Lessons from Seth Godin's talk about "The Dip" in Phoenix today
• Ambidexterity as a Dynamic Capability: Resolving the Innovator's Dilemma
• Repugnance as a Constraint on Markets
• Who should you hire?

Welcome to the Frank Lowy Library's blog

Yes, the blog has been around for some time, but the Library has decided that today is the blog's launch date. There is a link to the blog's feed on our newly remodelled home page (feedback on this is always welcome, please send us an email or leave a comment here).

Here's what you can expect from this blog if you subscribe to it:

• Library announcements, such that we'll be closed on Monday June 11 for the Queen's Birthday holiday in NSW
• Business research tips
  
• Every week, I'll post about a book recently added to the Library's collection as well as an interesting link from the web
• Other library news, such as updated research guides
  

Library closed on Saturday May 5

Because of UNSW IT Outage Servicing, the Library will be closed on Saturday May 5. Please also note that between 10 pm on Friday May 4 and 10 pm on Saturday May 5, the Library's catalogue and website and databases will not be available. The Information Commons will remain open during this time period, but the wireless network and networked printers will not be available [all electronic services, other than this blog, will be unavailable]. We apologize for the short notice and inconvenience.
