Week 3, Things 6 and 7


First of all, I have to say I feel like Dr. Seuss with Thing 1 and Thing 2.
Now that that's off my chest - I had a lot of fun investigating the mashups. My kids just got me a digital camera for Christmas and this person who has never had any luck taking pictures has suddenly become a real camera nut because I can delete all the bad pics and only print the good ones. But I had great fun with Flickr and actually created a magazine cover that I emailed to my daughter who just moved to San Antonio with this picture she sent me.

Week 3 Thing 5


Sunday in the Park

Thanks.

Lifelong Learners

Okay, so I forgot to say what was the biggest obstacle for me in "Learning 23 Things." It has to be that I'm afraid to ask questions. So I really do appreciate all the positive feedback and support of my coworkers. We are really fortunate to work in an institution that encourages lifelong learning!

Getting to Know you

Greetings, Library Community. I hope my co-workers at FCPL can figure out who I am from my Blog title. ILLBookbuyer. That pretty accurately describes what I do here, at least the major part of what I do. Like most of you, I wear about 15 hats! If you have any questions to ask me, you better email me, call me, or come to my desk because once I push the button to "post" this thing, I may never be able to figure it out again!
