The song that never ends.



Much like a meme where you fudge the answers to get the result you want, it can be very easy to say to yourself, "I'm doing everything right!" while watching 7 1/2 Habits of Highly Succesful Learners . What benefits you glean from the presentation- a self assessment/ self help/ tool for improving learning habits largely depend on your mindset, and how you deal with change.

Anyways, for this TLC 2.0 exercise, the task is to determine which habit among the 7 & 1/2 that is easiest for you and which is hardest. For me, the most difficult would be #3- I suspect this is because I'm a pessimist at heart. The easiest would be #6- I have lived my entire life working with (and surrounded by) technology.

First things first.

1. You may be a random stranger, stumbling onto this blog for the very first time. Or, you are a librarian or library staff participating in the Library TLC2.0 program. For those of you who fall into the first category, (and for some reason, feel compelled to discover what the heck a Library TLC2.0 program is) you can learn more by following the link. If you are a fellow participant in the Library TLC2.0 event- you have my sympathies. Just kidding!

2. I am a self-admitted flake when it comes to blogging, in general. Despite this, I am going to try and stick it out till the end (November 8th). I'm going to aim for at least 1 post per day. Who knows. I may (miraculously) actually stick to that. I might even stay around after the 8th. We'll see.


Circulation departments are the frontline for libraries. The Circulation department is usually the first stop for patrons looking to have their questions answered, or their problems solved. We deal with the public, staff, faculty, and students.

About me
For the past four years, I have been working for a Law Library as its Circulation Manager. I am not a librarian. In 2003 I received my BFA in Studio Art- I am now working on my first graduate degree- a Masters in International Business Administration.
