Daily Thoughts 03/22/2018

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I read some more of Fair Shot Rethinking Inequality and How We Earn on the subway to work this morning.  I am reading about the concept of the winner take all economy when it comes to digital technology.

I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.

I also checked some of the oversize books and used the weeding tablet to remove some items that were not found.

The book, Enlightenment Now The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress by Steven Pinker came in for me to read.

We had a presenter tonight from Westchester Community College.  Professor Christolyn Williams did a presentation on Nevertheless She Persisted for Women's History Month from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the community room.  It was quite interesting.  Professor Williams is a historian of Latin America and the Caribbean.

There was also a Beginning Microsoft Powerpoint class in the comptuer lab from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
