Rembrandt, Self Portrait With a Sketch Book, 17th Century

Daily Thoughts 02/04/2017

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I also started my online CPLA class for Budget and Finance.

I read some more of Another Country by James Baldwin.  I am almost finished reading the book.

I did a little more preparation work for programming.  I am looking at some Women's history programs.  I applied for one on Sojourner Truth through Humanities New York and asked about having a program on Women's Suffrage.

I checked the displays and the gift books.  I ordered some more boxes from Better World Books.

I read through several copies of Publishers Weekly today.

I also spent time working on my orders for new books for next week.
