I'm still here! I'm still a librarian and I still read!
To pay penance for my blog slacking, here is something shameful I keep on my laptop to remind me not to get too smarmy. I wrote it my first year of library school.
"My husband is convinced that the e-book will catch on and change the face of books forever, but I just don’t buy it. I am very enthusiastic about using technology in the library, but e-books - I just can't see them re-inventing the library."
Actually, the best part about this is that before I read this note in my own handwriting, I read a short article written in 2008 wherein the author stated all the reasons why e-readers wouldn't catch on.
"What an idiot" I say to myself...and then read my own astute agreement with the article.
Wah wah. (like grown ups in Charlie Brown)
