Daily Thoughts 10/20/2017
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.
I looked at the pictures in the book, Endurance by Scott Kelly. There were lots of pictures of Russian cosmonauts.
I checked the displays and the gift books this morning.
We had a class this morning led by Allison Midgley from the Westchester Library System. We first looked at the Westchester IT wiki, it.westchesterlibraries.org. Then we looked at variety of research tools like Press Reader and Infotrac Newsstand. Infotrac Newsstand has the Westchester Journal News which is the newspaper of record for Westchester county.
After the class we discussed a vinyl cutting machine for use with signage.
I spent some time checking the schedule for part timers in ADP.
I looked through the latest New York Times Bestseller List and Publishers Weekly Bestsellers List.
