    Raunchy Diesel Ad Too Hot for the Brooklyn Law School Library

    14 November 2010 / 6 Comments

    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.

    Day 4: My Favorite Books

    11 November 2010 / 5 Comments

    When I was a little girl, my favorite place in the world was the library.  I was a nerdy little girl who was often the object of a lot of teasing and the butt of endless jokes, and the library was the one place the bullies never seemed to enter.  The librarian, Mr. Wolford, would push a book cart my way and tell me to shelve.  Or he’d slide a stack of books across his desk and say he thought I’d enjoy them.  But it was my friend, Lisa, who introduced me to the joys of Danielle Steel when we were in about the 8th or 9th grade…  I would…

    “I Voted” Badge on Foursquare

    29 October 2010 / 0 Comments

    Currently, I’m teaching American National Government at Misericordia University, and this has been just as much a learning experience for me as it has been for my students.  When the class first started, I told my students that along with meeting the University’s goals, I have several outcomes for the course too.  I want them to: Vote Know the issues Evaluate their sources of information Understand the values that they bring with them to the polls In each of my classes (I’ve taught two so far), I explain not only the foundations of the government and the political process but I also explain the origins of the Articles of Confederation…

    Have a Smart Phone? Use the Barcode Scanner App to Take Living Outside the Stacks with You on the Go!

    24 September 2010 / 8 Comments

    Do you have a smart phone?  Have you noticed that little barcode reader app in the App Store?  Well, I did and, honestly, I had no idea what I’d use it for but I downloaded it anyway.  Hey, I figured it’s free so give it a try and if I hate it ~ no harm, no foul.  I heart it!  It’s probably one of my most played with apps. I use it when I’m shopping and I can’t find the price on something, scan it with the barcode reader and voilá there’s the price.  Or if I run across a book and I want to find out information about it,…
