Awful Library Books

The blog Awful Library Books is one of the funniest blogs I have seen in a long time. It is terrible to see what they find at their midwestern library. It reminds me a bit about my old school library. Researching for a paper there was no use in going there because most likely you wouldn’t find anything that was relevant anyway.
The two librarians who run the site have of course met resistance to what they do. The reoccurring comments seems to be about the question of keeping old books if the information is relevant and there is no money to buy a newer version. To me it depends from book to book, but in general I would say that there is nothing worse than looking for some good research and all you come up with is a book that was printed in the 60s or 70s. Then I prefer to find nothing at all.
If nothing else this is a funny blog.

Reading time

I’m craving some reading time! NaNoWriMo is taking up a lot of my time.
When things get hectic at work I always appreciate the company of a book more. It forces me to sit down, relax and just enjoy the book. Thoughts keep swirling in the back of my mind and sometimes I have to have a notepad next to me so that I can write down things I need to do. However, at the same time I can feel myself relax with that book, sink in to its magical world far away from all the musts. I feel happier and after I can take on the world again!
