Thoughtful Reader, Frantisek Dvorak, 1895

Daily Thoughts 08/08/2019

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

Last night, I read some more of Life After Google.  I am reading about cloud computing.  This book has a strong silicon valley libertarian, business oriented feeling in its writing.

I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.

I have a copy of Library Journal and two copies of Publishers Weekly to read today.

I spent some time checking nonfiction books in the mezzanine.

I also distributed a number of shelf lists to different people.

We put up a banner up for our book display for Toni Morrison.

I updated my account for the System for Awards Management from the government.

I have two copies of Publishers Weekly and a copy of Library Journal to read.

I took some suggestions for computer books from a colleague.

There is a Fundamentals of Computers class and a Beginning Microsoft Word 2013 class tonight in the computer lab.
