This blog grew out of participation in the Minnesota 23 Things On a Stick program and has a eye on how all of this Web 2.0 stuff matters to archives and special collections. If you don't get the "on a stick" part of the title, just visit the Minnesota State Fair: all the good stuff to eat is served on a stick.

Elmer's Library
Another little gem about Elmer Andersen from the TPT web site. Here's the blurb that goes with it: "Back in the 1950s when public television in Minnesota was still a dream, educational television had a champion in the state legislature in Elmer L. Anderson. In 1960, the republican was elected governor of our state. A year later, KTCA made a special program with Andersen, in which the governor showed off his impressive private collection of Minnesota history books. Here’s a clip."
