Lessons

Discovered that I left this post in my drafts folder, so am putting it on the web today.


Guess I have been remiss in posting my lessons as I work on them. I am caught up on the lessons. Have completed the Blogs, Rss and Newsreader and Wikki assignments.

A favourite quote :

I cannot believe that the purpose of life is (merely) to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be honourable, to be compassionate. I think it is above all to matter, to count, to stand for something. To have it make some difference that you lived at all.
Leo Rosten, 1908-1997.

Why I am here

I am creating this blog as an assignment for Library 2.0. I am somewhat behind the gun, as I was initially on holiday and then when I blew back into town, I became ill immediately and have been sick ever since. So, please forgive my delayed blog. And, hopefully, I am not Typhoid Mary, as a certain resident "scholar" who shall remain unnamed has implied.

I am the Library Supervisor in E.K. Williams Law Library, was previously the Reference Assistant here, and before that worked in the Education Library, the Government Publications section of Dafoe Library and prior to that, in the Agriculture Library.

My interests are quite varied. I enjoy watching a variety of sports, but also love movies as well as live theatre. Am an avid reader and swimmer and and still enjoy Manitoba's beaches.
