Daily Thoughts 07/10/2019

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I read some more of Build A Great Team One Year to Success on the way to work.  I am reading about how to make job interviews comfortable so people will reveal more about themselves.

I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.

I also placed an order for books on climate change for a program we are doing.

I checked out the book, Life After Google The Fall of Big Data and the Rise of the Blockchain Economy by George Gilder.

I spent some time discussing future programming in September and October with a colleague.  We are planning an intergenerational craft for Halloween.

I wrote up a list of our databases.

I checked some of the books in the mezzanine.

I spent a little time discussing grants.
