Cozy Sunday getting some work done. Corgi is supervising. Coffee needs a refill. Dreaming about what it would be like to work for the Library of Congress as all this tedium in metadata and subject analysis is proving to be quite enjoyable for me.
*read in Hermione Granger's voice*: "I checked this out for a big of light reading". ?
Let another semester of librarian school begin! After this semester, I'll have taken enough credits to officially gain certification as a school media specialist. ?? I can't believe it! The funny thing is, I'm not sure that I'll want to leave the classroom for a few more years, but it'll be there when I'm ready. ??
I'm honoured to be the recipient of the 2024 Cache Valley Library Association Library Hero Award, presented each January to someone who has given "notable service to libraries in Cache Valley."
I love this organisation and have so much respect for its members and the good work they do in our area. Long may it continue.

It‘s been a week since my degree was conferred — I am officially a credentialed librarian! It‘s one of the best gifts I could have given myself. 💜💛 #lsu #geauxtigers #mlis
It‘s already been almost a week since my new adventure started! 😍 On my way to fully becoming Megan the Librarian, complete with that MLIS after my name! ✌🏻 #gradschool #mastersdegree #libraryscience #lsuonline #louisianastateuniversity
Hades can‘t understand why I decided to go back to school after all these years either. 😳 (but he does like his crocheted blanket). 🧶
I‘m a bit overwhelmed and I don‘t see as much pleasure reading in my near future.
9 week summer MLS courses officially started today! I have 2 courses: The Public Library and Special Populations, and The Organization of Information 📚 Color coded organization is my must for these classes!
My cat April acting as a snuggly blanket while I finish my last textbook chapter of the semester. Only a week and a half left of class, two and a half weeks left of work, and then I will have 16.5(!) days off. Not that I‘m counting...
“- Library buildings, while continuing to adapt to changes in technology and user needs, are likely to continue being built for some time to come.
- Housekeeping matters - for both collections and people.
- Business continuity is vital.
- Risks must be assessed for the purposes of safety and insurance.
- Health, safety, and security are of growing concern.
- Disasters happen; all libraries need a disaster management plan that is regularly updated”
April enjoying reading about managing technology in libraries with me today #catsoflitsy #beststudybudy
