I am officially done my 23 things! (didn't dance but  secretly really wanted to do the Carlton dance lol).  Did things  21,  22 and 23. I was able to download Overdrive (after a few attempts) ,  dowloaded a book it succesfully. I even had a few laughs at some pages I saw on StumbleUpon. During the course of the weeks, I realized that I maybe not the most technology savy person there is but I have to give myself some credit...  I am able to learn and able to stay open minded. I went out of my comfort zone with Twitter and Blogger since I am not one who usually documents or shares on social media (aside from the Llibrary Facebook pages) I really enjoyed creating my Pinterest account. Love Pinterest even more and will definetly personalize it  more in the future!!! I also realized that I really need to take more advantage of my Vision account, eŝpecially with making lists of books I've read or want to read.  I am proud of myself for completing 23 Things:)

Just joined Scoop It and found interesting articles on library stuff:) It is always interesting to see what  libraries are doing wether it is programming , the design of spaces, book recommendations, etc.  Anything creative related to libraries always gets my attention.

Ah... memories of my childhood lol!


Podcasts...

I listened to the podcast about the debate on the New York Public Library. I liked the opinion shared that expanding the social spaces does not diminish the relevance of the library but instead makes it less intimidating, more welcoming and more modern.

Just finished working on my Pinterest account. I can really see myself using this tool in the future. It's fun:)

                                    Random image but added for the following reasons:
 
1) Love dogs but don't have one so this is a close as it gets
2) Wishful thinking: It is a super cold day , summer is NO where in sight (sigh) and there is unfortunately no existing  Send Sylvie to Jamaica (or anywhere hot ) fund :(

I had completely forgot to blog about last week's Twitter experience so I will do so this week... Another first for me since I didn't have a personnal Twitter account. It is a fast direct way to get messages, comments , observation, etc., accross.
 As for my vision account, I did have one but I had never followed anybody or created any lists. I even took the time this week  to put a few books on shelf for later.  I always have books I intend to read and I forget about it... I often suggest to patrons to make lists for themselves to keep track of their reading so I i guess I should start practicing what I preach!Lol
I also  found someone to follow who seems to have similar reading taste as I do (I'm not the only one who enjoys paranormal ghost type books. Yay!!!).
