Just when I thought I'd never add another post to this blog again because 23 Things is long over, I read an article on Tinfoil + Raccoon that kind of says what I've been feeling as I watch my branch get remodeled (the info desk was removed) and my info buddies walk around wired up to radios like cyborgs. If anyone stumbles on this blog, read this:

Most of my customers are expecting what they have had for a long time now, a place to go to order their reserves and holds, a place to ask questions, and a place to check out and pay fines or argue over those fines. Many still don't have computers at home, part of why they are in the library using ours. Many still want to call us up and renew their books. And many, many are still interested in BOOKS! I love those folks more and more.
I got an ipod touch for Christmas and have had a wonderful time with it, I have finally gotten mostly comfortable with a cell phone. Yes, I did program my VCR when I had a TV (that's gone now thanks to a storm this summer. We haven't gotten around to replacing it, and only miss it once in a while. It wasn't plasma or flat.) I like some technology, but how much time can you spend with it?
