Georges Braque, Woman Reading 1911

Daily Thoughts 08/27/2015

I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library this morning.  I also checked the displays and the gift books.

I spent some time working on scheduling as well as setting up the list of computer classes for September.  There is a computer class tonight on Beginning Microsoft Excel from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.  We have a new big screen monitor for the class.

I spent some time reading through the New York Times Book Review.  I also spent some time ordering new books on health and medicine to update the collection.

Tomorrow we are having a programming meeting to discuss adult programming.

Two books came in for me to read, they are both science fiction.  The first is Ultima by Stephen Baxter and the second is The End of All Things by John Scalzi.

We discussed the book In Montmartre Picasso, Matisse and the Birth of Modernist Art by Sue Roe for the book club from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.  People liked the photographs in the book,  They especially liked the picture of Picasso as a young man.  For the next book club, we are reading The Innocents Abroad by Mark Twain which should be entertaining on September 24, 2015 from 1:00 p.m.to 2:30 p.m.
