my library day in a life requires coffee

the superfun bobbi newman is running “library day in the life” for the fourth year.

i signed up to do this for round 3, but i was in the midst of changing jobs, so i really didn’t have a “day in the life” at that point – especially since one day involved packing & moving my office.

i also signed up for round 2, but realized i didn’t have a “day in the life” yet either, since i had only been a librarian for 5 months and some days involved minutiae that new librarians need to learn, but aren’t really part of your job (like, which rooms you have to teach in have wifi access when there’s no list anywhere…)

so this round, i’m in. i’ll be travelling to st louis 1/2 way through the week for the SLA Leadership Summit, and the first 2 days of the week will be used to catch up with my boss who has been on vacation for 2 weeks, but – that such is the life of a librarian, there is no “regular” week to show folks. which i guess is why bobbi planned this whole thing in the first place. *lightbulb moment*
