Daily Thoughts 12/22/2017
I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library this morning.
On the way to work, I read some more of Bunk. I am reading about the thin line between fiction and fact in biographies. It is often not clear when a book is fiction or not.
I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.
I spent some time getting ready for a Holiday Craft program tomorrow in the fiction room.
A person gave a small amount of money to the Lets Build Robots! Tweens Learn. Build. Share. today. We have raised $3705 so far for the program. https://www.givegab.com/campaigns/let-s-build-robots
I also described how I use current awareness in a short document this morning.
Right now, I am in the computer lab.
I spent some time checking the 800s.
I also looked through a copy of the Times Literary Supplement as well as looked at the latest New York Times Bestseller List and Publishers Weekly Bestseller list. I looked through a copy of the Ingram Advance Graphic Novels and Comics Winter 2017-2018 as well.
I will be going on vacation next week.
I checked out the book An Unkindness of Ghosts by Rivers Solomon.
