Daily Thoughts 02/11/2014

I have started UI is Communication.  The viewpoint is that web pages are a form of communication and they should be easily used and understood.

This morning, I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library.  I also checked the displays and the gift books.  We had a patron request an ebook copy of Sycamore Row by John Grisham.  I ordered a few ebooks today.  I also ordered some bestsellers this morning as well.

This afternoon, I did a little more work with the oversize books.

The computer lab was open from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m..  We are starting to collect usage statistics for the computer lab.  There are also two computer classes, a Beginning Microsoft Word class from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 pm., and a Fundamentals of Computer Operations class from 6:45 p.m. to 7:45 p.m.

Women's Enterprise Development Center is a doing A First Steps for Small Business class in the Fiction room from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. tonight.   There is also a reception in the rotunda for an art exhibit, Multi-Cultural Expressions which is a mix of photographs and paintings tonight.
