Why Smart People Defend Bad Ideas. Scott Berkun's article, “Why Smart People Defend Bad Ideas,”
is a thoughtful examination of why ordinarily rational and intelligent
people defend and hold on to the silliest ideas and practices. Much of
it has to do with ego or simple group thinking. I agree with Tasha at Sites and Soundbytes–so
much of this applies to libraries (probably to every workplace). It's
a good read–particularly if you have any committee meetings coming up! [LibrarianInBlack]
