I like e-books for quick reference, but when I want to really read - I need a physical book to really enjoy it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01444502593180558708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916099.post-90488076061446855792012-03-07T19:52:52.190-05:002012-03-07T19:52:52.190-05:00I really like the 'E-Books are the new latte.&...I really like the 'E-Books are the new latte.' <br /><br />As the whole world rushes head-long to squeeze all of human experience into 13 x 15 screens, a time-out is needed. We forget at our peril that humans are physical beings. Books are essential for stimulating all five senses, not just the sense of sight.

I really wanted to say something else, but I said it in my head like a good librarian and wrote this instead.<br /><br />"I received your appeal form regarding your library fines. Regardless of whether or not the material was for your entertainment or educational benefit, they were returned late and fines apply. We send out three reminder notifications before you are billed, in an effort to lessen the chances that anyone will have to pay anything. We also offer convenient online renewal, which if you had utilized would have eliminated the chance of the materials becoming late. However, since the fines were received due to their late return, they do apply and will not be waived. However, you owe $30 and our block level is $25. If you pay at least $6, your library borrowing privileges will be restored and you can pay the remaining amount at a later time. I hope that is a fair compromise."Unclassifiable Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10121647613057092634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916099.post-3768881708826350462011-02-24T13:16:20.649-05:002011-02-24T13:16:20.649-05:00It's part of my library duties - we have a vir...It's part of my library duties - we have a virtual library, plus doing some volunteer work as well.Unclassifiable Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10121647613057092634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916099.post-71615850634759592812011-02-23T16:58:26.467-05:002011-02-23T16:58:26.467-05:00If I had more time, I would get involved - althoug...If I had more time, I would get involved - although I am supposed to through a range of duties outside out the library.<br /><br />Its lots of fun, thoughNatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189975564908335399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916099.post-26818399661306785602011-02-23T16:52:38.261-05:002011-02-23T16:52:38.261-05:00Very interesting data, June.
