Daily Thoughts 09/25/2014
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.
I read some more of The Organized Mind by Daniel J. Levitin. There is a description how breaking things down into small discrete parts which are easier to do, then doing the parts one at a time is often the easiest way to get things done. There is also a reminder that getting enough sleep improves memory and performance.
This morning, I checked the displays and the gift books. I also printed up some more flyers for programs. I am covering the computer lab today from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.. There is a Microsoft Excel computer class tonight from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Sometimes patrons ask for interesting books. This caught my attention,
Dr. Mutter’s Marvels: A True Tale of Intrigue and Innovation at the Dawn of Modern Medicine by Cristin Aptowicz.
I placed the book Transcendental by James Gunn on hold.
