I took these notes today as part of The Day in the Life project, if you would like to read more please the wiki, if you’re interested in how it all got started read this post and this one. 6:00 wake up, wonder if the weather got bad enough over night that work will be canceled. Get up make coffee and realized that the library will be open today. Fret over whether or not I should just stay home, we’re supposed to get more bad weather this afternoon and I live 30 miles from the library. Decide to go in. 7:15 – leave for work. The highway isn’t great, everyone is going about 50, I see one accident and am almost in one when I have to brake. Ugh I’m over half way to work so I keep going, if I were close to home I’d probably turn around. 8:00 – Arrive at work.

Library Day in the Life – Monday Day 3
I took these notes today as part of The Day in the Life project, if you would like to read more please the wiki, if you’re interested in how it all got started read this post and this one. I’m off work at the Library today because I worked the weekend. 7:00 coffee time! I take the dogs out, man it’s cold! I check my email, Friendfeed and return some comments from Facebook yesterday. 8:30 sign into Blackboard to finish reading posts, complete grades for this week. 9:30 I get ready to run errands. Lots to do today! First stop, my local library (not where I work) to return a couple of videos and pick up Season 2 Vol 1 of Alias, I’m rewatching the series. Then on to check out a new (to me) gym. My old one closed. It looks really nice, so I’ll be going back at the end of the week to sign up. I do some grocery shopping and somehow end up with more than I’d planned on getting. 12:00 back home put away groceries, and make lunch – brussels sprouts! 1:00 sit down to work on a workshop I’ll be presenting in Minnesota in April. 4:00
Day (Week) in the Life of a Library _____ Round 2 begins Monday!
That’s right round two will kick off Monday January 26th. It looks like we have enough people interested to schedule round two. Its easy to play along, 1) just blog your day or week which ever you prefer. Add your information to the wiki and 2 ) be sure to tag your posts librarydayinthelife. The original idea was to give people and potential LIS students an idea of what the average day in the life of a Librarian or Library-fill-in-the-blank was like. I’m looking forward to seeing the new posts from new people and the difference between the previous round and this one. Ready, set, go!
