Daily Thoughts 12/08/2016

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I finished reading Messy, The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives by Tim Harford.  This is a nice reminder that a little chaos can be invigorating.

I also started reading American Philosophy A Love Story by John Kaag.

I checked the displays and the gift books.

I wrote my monthly report.

I did some preparation for ordering.

I put a new person into the ADP system today.

I have been looking at the Programming Librarian website for events.

I read some of American Philosophy A Love Story on the train home.  It is about a philosophy teacher who discovers a library of antiquarian philosophy books and arranges to organize and study the collection.
