New Catalog

I've been messing with the new catalog and really having fun learning something new. It will be interesting when the patrons have access to it; we'll really be bombarded with quetions, I imagine.

I'm wondering how it will work for the under 13 kiddos. Will parents freak or will it be easy and self-explanitory? My 12 year old is annoyed that he doesn't get to make up his user name from scratch but has only pre-set words to work with (color, animal, number?). Whatever, kid! Little freedoms mean a lot to this age group, I guess. I'm glad he's restricted. It will give him time to get to know how it works.

Quickie task 5

This is not an interesting post, in case you were intrigued by my title.

Whew--I'm racing the clock.

I subscribed to these library sites because they looked interesting:

But, now that Anita and Elf have pointed out http://awfullibrarybooks.wordpress.com/, why waste my time doing anything else? I can teach my kids about smoking, drinking horses!
All done.
