Daily Thoughts 03/19/2014

This morning, I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library.  I also placed a couple books on hold, The Heathen School: A Story of Hope and Betrayal in the Early Republic by John Demos http://www.npr.org/2014/03/18/291130318/what-u-s-learned-from-heathen-school-wasnt-part-of-the-lesson-plan?utm_medium=facebook&utm_source=npr&utm_campaign=nprnews&utm_content=03182014 and My Boyfriend Barfed in My Handbag... And Other Things You Can't Ask Martha by Jolie Kerr http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/14/books/my-boyfriend-barfed-in-my-handbag-offers-aid-on-filth.html?smid=tw-share&_r=0#.  I found articles on them on Facebook which grabbed my attention.

On another note, Somers Library in Westchester does a very good job with their social media.  They have a very nice Pinterest board.  http://www.pinterest.com/somerslibrary/

I have been reading a little more of No Ordinary Time.  It is a very large book.  Right now, I am reading about Eleanor Roosevelt's syndicated column and her autobiography, This Is My Story. 

I have been listening to Abbey Road by the Beatles on Youtube.
