Daily Thoughts 09/22/2016

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook today.

I wrote a sample query letter for a foundation today for my Grants and Fundraising class.  I sent it to a foundation listed in the Foundation directory online who had given money to Westchester based library.

I read some more of Power by Jeffrey Pfeffer.  I am reading about networking.  People tend to network up to move up the corporate ladder.

I spent some time thinking about programming today.

I also worked a bit on a grant.
