The End of an Era

"After 244 years, Encyclopaedia Britannica stops the presses" This announcement made me sad. I understand that people are turning less and less to the print version of reference books than ever before, but I really love the idea of being able to visualize all of that knowledge in one place. It just made the grand scheme of life a lot less overwhelming.

A New Crush?

Jon Hamm isn't really my type but that may change after reading this! I love what he has to say about useless celebrities and female ideals. A shout out goes to Daniel Craig (who is exactly my type) and Jonah Hill as well....

Beautiful!

A beautiful silent but powerful film for anyone who loves reading and books! I actually welled up at the end. It is a truly lovely story. I hope you enjoy.

Reminder to Librarians!

Thank you to Andy Burkhardt for this post about Human-Centered Librarianship. I thought this was a really well written post that helps remind us that our goal is, was and will always be to help the patron.

Follow the Money!

Follow the Money is another great website with information that is of interest to many! It is sponsored by the National Institute on Money in State Politic, which is a non-profit and non-partisan organization, and brought to my attention via another listserv.

Great Healthcare Resource

Sometimes being on a listserv can be really annoying but most of the time I find they are an amazing resource! I was just introduced to The Health and Medical Care Archive by the University of Michigan and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Check it out here!
