Library Dreams Come True
This year so far there were two major things I was not sure how I would get them done in the library but really wanted them to come true. One was a game club and the other was a storytelling club. I just kept the vision alive but did not have time to actively start them. A youth worker arrived on the scene and promptly offered to run a club in our seminar room two days a week at lunch. She sought out money to buy the older used equipment. We have 3 older sony play stations and just a few games soccer and hockey...so far so good. This week two wonderful students came up to me and just said they were inspired to start storytelling in the library. Even though things were a little noisy they still pushed forward and gradually more and more students joined as the students read from Folktales and Fables of hte World. It was more than awesome. It was transforming. It came from them so they all bought in and really enjoyed the simplicity and solace.

The Inside Job
Saw the inside job on Netflix. Even if only 1/4 of it is true it is terrible. I certainly hope this second wave of governments collapsing in Europe is not the canary in the mine warning us of doom and gloom.
