iphone

Not gonna lie, I want one. I think it's rather a waste of technology, does a lot of nifty things, but still, I have my ipod for music, and my mobile to make calls. If I want to browse the internet I'd much rather do it from the comfort of my desk with a big widescreen instead of an index card sized handheld

All these doom and gloom books about how copyright is on the verge of smiting us all. I know libraries should be far more involved in the making of copyright law, but for now the status quo has left me highly functional. It's a piss poor attitude, but I'd just as soon ignore it altogether

oh stop

I get so tired of trying to explain to people why I want to be a librarian. No one seems to understand that there is actually more to librarianship than "oh I love to read books too!" If you love to read books, go read them, Barnes and Nobel is probably the place for you. I also think that public librarians probably suffer a lot more of "I'm trying to find this book a friend told me about, I don't remember the title or author but it just came out a couple of years ago and it's about the lady who is a widow and lives on a farm by herself...." Maybe that's not the case, but I wish people would just realize that it's not necessarily about the books, but the information in them!
