A big apology to Steven M. Cohen of the original Library Stuff blog. I goofed. This blog started out as a small test and was aimed towards the staff and board at my library. It was late one night and all I could come up with was Library Stuff. The blog was dormant for quite a while and then one day I added another posting, which seems to have made a few rounds (thanks to those that quoted it!). I certainly didn’t intend to offend anyone.
I hope you like the new title – I’m pretty sure it’s not yet taken (but let me know if I’m wrong!)

I’m sure tongue was firmly in cheek with his comments.
All the same, best of luck to ‘Library Journeys…’ !!!

Titles can’t be copyrighted.
These happen all the time to peopel with lots more resources than bloggers!
There were two Cloud Atlases in 2004:
Cloud Atlas: A Novel by David Mitchell and The Cloud Atlas by Liam Callanan . And two [The] March in 2005:
March by Geraldine Brooks (2005)
The March: A Novel by E.L. Doctorow (2006).
Steven C’s tongue was definitely in cheek. One continuing section of my e-zine (Cites & Insights) is “The Library Stuff” and we’ve had a similar lighthearted conversation.
[Quite apart from titles not being copyrightable, and Steven C's never attempted to trademark it, your use of an ellipsis differentiates the two titles.]
On the other hand, I do like “Library Journeys…”–with or without an ellipsis.
[...] Stumbled on this blog through Library Stuff because this blog originally had the same name. A little flurry in the blog world… [...]
