Daily Thoughts 07/29/2016

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I placed an interlibrary loan on The Purpose Driven Library Finding Your Path to Survival, Success, and Growth by John J. Huber and Steven V. Potter.

On the way to work, I read some more of The Planet Remade.  I am reading about how it is possible to use large airplanes to seed the upper the atmosphere to make the world a little cooler.

I checked the displays and the gift books today.  I also printed up some flyers.

I am working on some programs for September.  We are gettting the dvd for To Begin The World Over Again: The Life of Thomas Paine which is a program from the American Library Association focusing on intellectual freedom.  We are also arranging for a coupon clipping program.

I spent some time learning Google Calendar.  I am finding it extremely easy to use.

I also checked out the book, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch which is science fiction.

I put in an order for new books today and looked at the latest New York Times Bestseller which comes in on my email on Fridays.

I like that Oliver Morton in his book  The Planet Remade cites the book, The Invasion of the Sea by Jules Verne as an early imagined example of geoengineering.
