Throwback Thursday – Weeding #tbt
A couple thoughts on a massive fiction weeding project I did at Southeast Regional Library…
- I’m sure this weeding project was literally the moment that I went from believing “All books are precious tomes of knowledge that should be preserved at all costs” to “Well, I guess if we’re buying new books all the time, we gotta get rid of some. And since these ones are shitty, to the shredder they go!” 😉
- Check out the command-line based ILS in the background – Dynix Classic. Thankfully I grew up in the age of DOS and caught on pretty quickly to its quirks.
- The office I’m in looks quite bare bones and that’s for good reason. The office I actually worked out of was next door but since we had a vacant position at SRL while I was there, I got to use this empty office for some of my work (and make jokes about having two offices all the time as well!)
