Librarians Rock
Aug. 19th, 2014 11:28 pmI visited two libraries this afternoon. One was a huge library at Illinois State University, and one was a small library (even smaller than ours) at a community college. Our Normal campus does not have a library, so one of the options for faculty, staff, and students at that campus is to go to these local libraries.
I've been corresponding with librarians at both libraries, and they have been extraordinarily helpful. As a general rule, librarians tend to be very helpful; I'm met a few grouchy librarians, but they are the exceptions. I learned that I have information that would be useful to the community college library, so I'm glad that I'll be able to help them in return.
I've spent the evening writing instructions for using our two sets of eBooks, and I'm starting to wipe out. I think that I'm going to crash after watering the outside plants and doing kitty maintenance. I'd like to get up earlier than usual to stop back at the community college library to take a picture of it. We'll see if I wind up staying at work until 11:30 PM like I did on Monday. Oh, but the display that I created turned out well.
