Brooklyn Museum, Girl Arranging Flowers, William McGregor Paxton, 1921
Daily Thoughts 01/13/2017
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning. I also checked the gift books and the displays.
Right now, I am in the computer lab. I spent some time examining some of the large print books for damage and repairs as well as location changes and relabeling.
I have been looking at legal databases a little bit.
I checked out the book, How Bad Writing Destroyed the World Ayn Rand and the Literary Origins of the Financial Crisis by Adam Weiner. I also checked out some films on writers and film critics including Life Itself about Roger Ebert.
I called Penguin Speakers Bureau today.
I am looking at the books Peacock & Vine On William Morris and Mariano Fortuny by A.S. Byatt. I like the photographs, picture of paintings, tapestries, and houses in this book. It is not a big book, but it is very lovely in its design. There are also many quotes from William Morris's writing.
