Chief Librarian Barnius may look familiar to some.

stranger than fiction
More on the drunken librarian meme.
I got the ‘eureka’ moment that there might be hot guys at this party. Yeah, I was already fucked up. Hot guys at a library party? Sure. That could happen. It’s almost as likely as Marcus Schenkenberg and Tyson Beckford showing up at a Star Trek convention. But in my drunken mind, it seemed like a possibility.

Hi. I’ve been having a bit of trouble with my Movable Type install which means that posting has been troublesome and slowish. I’m working it out this week but updates may be sporadic. Plus the holdays and all….
inside the book, without all the guilt
You mean I may be able to search inside the book without having to have all those soul-searching discussions about how sucky Amazon is and how maybe my library should be more like them anyhow….? Google beta-tests inside the book searching.

Hi. I had to stay home from work today because of a crazy snowstorm. I dislike staying home from work so I did workish things here — dealt with my work budget, looked at the website I am working on from a lot of different browsers, messed with this site. I got the bad news from our OPAC provider at work. They do not support Netscape. This was their response when I pointed out a really egregious formatting error that I had gotten when doing a routine query. Problem solved on their end, I guess “Oh, we don’t support that.” I wonder what other browsers they don’t support? Probably all of them except Internet Explorer So, I may not be able to change what is already broken at my library, but I’ve been looking into Open Source systems again. LISnews had a link to a very informative pdf HOWTO discussing how to distribute Open Source software CD’s in your library.
