Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. The problem with working in a library is I want to read all the time. When we first started the popular collection. For example, I decided I'd read every book in it so I could knowledgeably answer questions about it. Great idea, except I order new books at a faster rate than I read them. Then there are the related books in our main collection on literature and censorship. That one about frontier justice. That just arrived this morning. See?

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Libraries: The New Bookstores! Britain's culture minister, Margaret Hodge, recently suggested that public libraries might consider teaming up with Amazon to sell books as well as loan them. Not surprisingly, booksellers have deemed this idea Not Cool. [ The Guardian story. It may well be a welcomed change. Or order a copy for someone else I think would like it? I'd be even more of a library fan than I am now. There's no way a library could stock at the...

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. I heard the news today, oh boy. 1] And when I say "local" what I mean is "the Borders I sometimes drive 25 minutes this direction to visit" not "the Borders I less frequently drive 25 minutes the other direction to visit".

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Creating a popular collection in a law library. Our library recently started a law-related popular media collection. Which is just a fancy way of saying we're now buying books and movies featuring (mostly) fictional accounts of the law and lawyers. Okay, technically, it's just books for now, but we've got about 30 movies to add to the collection soon as well. The Importance of Being Earnest. We piloted the collection during the Fall semester, choosing ...

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. HULK SMASH REDUCTIONIST VIEW OF FANGIRLS. This has been bothering me for weeks now. And has nothing to do with law. Sorry.). It started with rain boots. The intersection in front of the law school tends to flood during heavy rains, so I wanted a pair. I saw an advertisement for some officially-licensed Marvel rain boots in a comic book. My first reaction was delight. Then I actually looked at the boots. I hate them. The comic images. Why do I have to b...

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Impressions on the nook, or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the ebook reader. I bought a nook the other day. [1]. In recent months I've gone from thinking I'd never buy an ebook reader to considering it at length to one day just waking up having decided to buy one. [2]. Prices on ebook readers have dropped significantly in recent months, well into the impulse range for that sort of item. And my new job [4]. I've already added about 60 titles t...

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Horatio Hornblower and the law of the sea. Thanks to a Barnes and Noble sale and a moment of weakness with my credit card, I picked up the complete. On DVD last week. My well-travelled VHS copies may finally be retired, bless. And rather than be productive around the house I had a marathon; the 1999-2003 series is comprised of eight 100-minute episodes, plus I capped it off with the 1951 Gregory Peck movie. About ten years ago and, while every adaptati...

Law Librarian By Day: Libraries: Bigger on the Inside
http://lawlibrarianbyday.blogspot.com/2011/03/libraries-bigger-on-inside.html
Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Libraries: Bigger on the Inside. Come inside and there are countless programs, resources and, yes, books - enough for years of exploration. When the time comes to change, we do. And just as the Doctor never tires of introducing new companions to his home, librarians can exude that same glee about our professional homes. What happens when someone new discovers the TARDIS? Labels: bigger on the inside. My library was dukedom large enough. Jarndyce and ja...

Law Librarian By Day. Boring normal person by night. Schadenfreude, Online Privacy and Me. Now, there was nothing shocking posted on that site, nothing that could make my mother blush. (One of the nice things about not drinking alcohol is that you never have to worry about people having crazy! So why did I delete it? Known me to find it. But the principle stands.). So, what did I learn? Links to this post. Labels: i did it my way. This is a good idea right? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I did it my way.
