Reflections, John William Godward, 1918
Daily Thoughts 01/23/2015

On the way to work, I read some of  The Whispering Swarm by Michael Moorcock.  It is a memoir with a slight mix of fantasy about Michael Moorcock's youth set in London.

I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library this morning.  I also checked the displays and the gift books. 

We had a training session for staff on e-books.  We spent some extra on Overdrive because of the Overdrive Advantage program as well as some of their streaming video and audio ebooks.

I worked a bit more on the graphic novels grant this afternoon.  I also spent some time working with the oversize books.
