Librarian (and library volunteer) problems -- seeing this series of books:

A Look at Life in the Fifties

A Look at Life in the Sixties

A Look at Life in the Seventies

A Look at Life in the Eighties

A Look at Life in the Nineties

But, because the years are written out as words, not numbers, you have to put them in alphabetical order:

A Look at Life in the Eighties

A Look at Life in the Fifties

A Look at Life in the Nineties

A Look at Life in the Seventies

A Look at Life in the Sixties

Hi so in regards to your frustration at duolingo I recently found another language app/website called mango languages which is normally paid but you can get free access if your local library is joined up. From my very brief look at it it does give a LOT more explanations though it seems to just ask you to say things rather than write. Anyway just thought it might be helpful? sorry to bother you

Aw the Erie Co system doesn’t have that one, but it does look kind of cool! Answering this publicly in case it can help someone else. :)

Mango Languages-- they have a lot! No Kyrgyz, but they do have Kazakh! 

And it’s never a bother to get an ask from someone who’s got relevant advice! I follow you back, you know! <3 <3 <3

Bibliotheca is excited to announce that their shareholders, One Equity Partners (OEP), today completed the purchase of 3M Library Systems North American business, and entered into agreements to purchase the assets of 3M’s remaining global Library Systems business.

After 40 years, 3M gets out of the library systems business.

i'm way too upset about my library switching systems because the old one (opac) was so much faster than the new one (bibpub. I don't even like the name). the only good thing about the new one is the book statistics (even though some of them make me sad because some haven't been lent out many times at all. (cirkeln has been lent 67 times this year though, bless!)

Kind of freaking out about my Systems Librarian interview in the AM

I really, really, really want this job!

Anyone have any last minute hints or tips about systems librarianship and Makerspaces?

(especially makerspaces? I have this like, platonic ideal of a makerspace in my head... but ACK! They also want associated ideas about Kid's Discovery Areas and Teen Zones.... Sorry, I'm kinda freaking out... I really want this job!!!) 

Help?
