First of all, I’d like to thank Bobbi at Librarian by Day for putting the Library Day in the Life Project together. The first time I participated in this meme was back in 2008 when I was blogging at Curious Child’s Library Wanderings. I remember I was able to keep track […]
In the Library
I’m the Evening Technical and Public Services Librarian at the Miller Library at Keystone College, a private, co~educational college in La Plume, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1868, Keystone College was the first institution of higher learning in Northeast Pennsylvania. I’ve worked here for about 4 months now and I really do enjoy […]
The 6th round of the Library Day in the Life Project is hosted by Bobbi at Librarian by Day and will begin on Monday, 24 January. I look forward to sharing my experiences with you all and reading about the lives of my fellow librarians. My hope is that by […]

Um, wow! It takes a lot to make me blush but I have to say, the risqué photographs taken by Diesel in the Brooklyn Law School library are enough to make even this librarian’s bun get tight. The Brooklyn Law School library is reportedly upset about the pictures and the […]
