Virgil Reading the Aenaeid to Augustus and Octavia, Jean-Joseph Taillasson, 1787

Daily Thoughts 04/04/2020

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I have been watching two series on Kanopy streaming video.  The first is The Architecture of Power, Great Palaces of the Ancient World which is part of the Great Courses series.  I enjoy watching these lectures.  I find them interesting.  I am also watching Understanding Greek and Roman Technology, The Great Courses on Kanopy.

I plan on watching a few professional development videos.

I read some of the articles on Programming Librarian.

I like to look through the Library Think Tank group on Facebook
