The document summarizes surveys conducted by Marcus Banks on the health sciences biblioblogosphere. The surveys aimed to understand the goals of librarian bloggers and their readers. Key findings include that the main reason for blogging was as a source of ideas, and most readers acted on blog content sometimes. While blogs helped clarify thinking for some authors, others found little impact on their practice. Readers were more likely to act on blogs than email lists due to easier tracking of discussions.
