Someone borrowing my computer today saw the trading card that came with the librarian action figure and asked me when I was going to have my own card. I said first I’d have to figure out what to put on it. He then played with my action figure for about ten minutes. Why not have [...]
Someone posted something about “Unshelved,” a comic strip about public library employees, on one of the e-mail discussion lists I’m on. It’s published online, distributed via an e-mail list, and has an RSS-feed. Since my blog needs a comic strip, I’m posting about it and aggregating it. Are there other comics with RSS-feeds? Addendum 10/29: [...]

Je’, you can come to my office anytime … but be forewarned that not every day is a prom here …
People often ask me what I do ’cause I have such a funky (notice that “funky” begins with “fun”) job, so here’s another example. I attended many planning meetings for this special Web and Gazette project. Today’s paper Gazette has a special 8-page pull out section about the stadium. (Most of that is in the [...]
Contrary to other reports, there is an agenda for tonight’s blog group gathering. Michael and I are running the meeting. Michael has a brief agenda so far. If anyone would like to add anything to the agenda, contact either me or him. We will, of course, be open to items brought up at the meeting [...]
