Daily Thoughts 10/19/2010
Today has been a very steady day. I spent some time gathering selections for my Graphic Novel club tomorrow. We also got a bunch of giveaways to distribute from http://eere.energy.gov/ . This included posters, bookmarks, and other material for National Energy Awareness month which is this October.
I also went through my orders in preparation for tomorrows meeting for collection development. I am also going over the assignments for shelf reading.
I worked a little more on the Fundamentals of Acquisitions class today from the American Library Association. It gave some nice suggestions for upgrading my suggest an item web form. I am looking at reading some recent material on acquisitions management.
