Reference and Information Services: An Introduction | Kay Ann Cassell, Uma Hiremath

“In 1876, Samuel Green, librarian of the Worcester Free Public Library in MA, developed the idea of having librarians assist users in the selection of books to suit their needs.”

Me: “HEY! That‘s my hometown!” 🙌🏻

“Green saw the role of the public library as one of welcoming users by having a pleasant & cultivated female staff.”

Me: Oh, Jesus Christ...

Also me [to my husband]: “Honey, would you say I‘m pleasant & cultivated?”
Him: “No.”

🙈😂

Karkar 😂😂 6y

monalyisha Note: He DID go on to qualify that yes, I am pleasant...but NO, I am not “cultivated.” 😆 I can‘t disagree. 6y

Understanding Comics | Scott McCloud

Reading materials for my graphic novels class! Understanding Comics is an amazing book to learn what the different styles and basically the reason artist and writers do what they do from the space away from each panel to the different fonts. #litsyloveslibraries #libraryschool #gradschool

Graywacke I‘m curious what school you‘re taking the class at (but understand if that‘s private info). My wife took a graphic novel class at U of Houston and raved about it and still follows the professor (who writes GN, but doesn‘t illustrate them). 7y

WellReadCatLady @Graywacke I go to U of North Texas but online, I also went to UH! 7y

Graywacke @GirlInterruptedReading sounds like a terrific class. 7y
