Old Woman Meditating, Gabriel Metsu, 1660-1662
Daily Thoughts 01/10/2018
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.
I read some more of Making Contact. This is a biography of Jill Tarter who is one of the founders of SETI and the astronomical search for aliens. There is a list of terms which are used at the beginning of the book as well as a list of people in the book.
Last night I watched the documentary, The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin. It was an official selection of the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival. It gives an excellent introduction to how bitcoin works.
I checked the displays and the gift books.
We are finished checking the 800s and 900s. Right now, we are doing shifting.
I spent some time looking over books that were listed as not being in the catalog.
We spent some more time working on the calendar of events.
I also contacted people for programs for February and March. We have a number of events that are already planned in the coming months.
