I finally finished a book this month (the fines on the book were acruing; it was about $2.10 when I brought it back) and will probably finish another couple (signed out Brokeback Mountain; certainly will be able to get through that in about a day:p ). I think it's because I am on the...

I will take that into consideration. I had my mom and a prof look over my resume before I started really applying for jobs; I have had interviews, so obviously the resume/cover letter isn't the problem, but there might be something in the interview process that I am missing. Considering asking...

I agree with you there, that libraries are the place to be and I hope to be there sometime soon. I am applying as often as I am able to and even considering applying to a bookstore or two to keep my head sane, all the while still applying for library jobs. It may take some time before I get...

Thanks for the job posting site. I would do reader's advisory, probably help with teaching databases to individuals (depends on the setting), I might do cataloguing, or I might just check out materials to library customers. It would depend on the library situation. Sometimes I could be...

Is there anybody who works in a library as either a librarian or a library assistant or as a library technician? The reason I ask is that I graduated from a Library Technicians diploma program back in June and have been applying off and on (sometimes more off than on) for Library...

Yeah, but my problem is that I borrow too many books from the library; think I have about 20 books that I have currently signed out from the library at the present time :rolleyes: :eek:

Mine is a combination of my middle name, Jayne, and my favourite character, Bosco, from one of my favourite TV shows, Third Watch. :p

I have noticed that too: the boys tend to get the non-fiction books on cars and sports and anything related to those sorts of topics. Being a fine arts school that I volunteer in, they also like to get the how-to drawing books. As for fiction, I see a lot fantasy signed out, especially our...

I hope it does; have gotten a few ideas for something that I might read next :eek:

I got that one as well :)

I do write, but I write what is called fanfiction; it's quite popular with fans of a particular show or book or whatever they choose to use. Even though there usually is a canon (characters, storylines, etc.) that is available to the writer, the writer has the discretion as to how much of the...

I have actually graduated from a Library Technician's program (we are like librarians, except we don't have a masters degree, but we do have the training to work in a variety of areas that constitute a library) in my hometown and have volunteered for the past 5 school years in a school in my...

I don't know how it happened, but I managed to do a multiple post of a comment in the MP3 player thread in the Music section of the board. I managed to get one of them edited, but the other two I was unable to do anything to as the time had expired. Is there anyway of deleting the remaining...

Personally, I like the iPod (got the 4GB Nano for Christmas) cause I have one. I like the fact that I can put it in my jeans pocket and go for a walk for however long the cd is and not worry about it skipping on me or carrying extra cd cases with me :P As to how people listen to their...

As somebody who has volunteered in a school library for the past few years, I have definately been able to notice the difference in the reading habits of the students, both male and female. The girls tend to get the fiction material, with the odd non-fiction item, whereas the boys tend to on...

I am having a real problem getting into one book right now. It doesn't matter what I am reading, I just can't seem to get into book and it really is bothering me. I love to read, don't get me wrong, but I just can't seem to concentrate on anything I am reading at the present time. I pick up...

I loved the movie, especially the look of the movie, but there were moments during where I felt that Heath force his acting, whereas Jake came across as being more natural with his acting. Just my opinion.:o

New shows I am watching: Prison Break (comes back in a month :D) House Grey's Anatomy (watched last night; going to get the season one dvd's) Veronica Mars (somewhat new; in its second full season) Commander in Chief (watched the first five episodes and haven't watched since; second rate...
