Happy Holidays!

Monday, December 21st, 2009

I admit I have nothing to add. No links right now. No fun things. I have been however reading many entertaining books which have nothing to do with school.

So, I shall have to turn it over to all of you…

What do YOU know that’s happening around Boston the next few weeks? Any cool museum exhibits? Any nifty First Night events? Any fun library adventures?

Or better yet… what books are YOU reading?

… it occured to me.

Nothing here since before Thanksgiving, which I trust, everyone enjoyed.

Just a few quick annoucements from the the most Listserve posting:

1. GSLIS student Shanna Strunk has asked for me to post this announcement:

I need a friend and/or replacement at the ICA working in the library/archive
under the registrars Janet and Shelby. I hope you will pass this information
along to anyone whom you think will enjoy working at the ICA.

Currently I am working on entering the monographs from the ICA Library into
LibraryThing. Additional projects include cleaning up the printed material
files, updating reference files and preparing for the 75th anniversary in 2011.

2. Amy Deschenes of the GSLIS group ASSIST was hoping to find an arty student
to design a new logo for their group. If you are interested in this volunteer
design opportunity, please email her directly at: amy.deschenes@simmons.edu

ALSO: ARLIS Spring Conference:
The ARLIS/NA 2010 annual conference

Boston, April 23-26

at the Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center.

(More details to follow.)

Good luck everyone, with the last week of classes, and expect some new exciting posts here in celebration in the days to come.
