Library and Information Center Management by Robert D. Stueart

Go to review page

This is a fat book. Again, not the most exciting of subjects; however, it is great for people who know nothing of library management. It is also good for people who just haven't done any studying on management in general.

There is a lot of text in the book that seems to be there just for entertainment value. Aside from that, I think this book serves its intended purpose, and not just the purpose to bore me to the point of wanting to jump in front of a bus. Though, it does that too!

HAVE THESE PEOPLE EVER HEARD OF AN EDITOR??!?!?!?!?!?! JESUS K. REIST!!!!!! It saddens me. It's a text book, and I think the reason that many people may find it rather difficult is because of all the grammatical (and other) errors. So sad, so sad.

My first manga.

Crack.
Crack on paper.
That is what it is.

I sat at the library today.
I read this while I was there.

So handy, so handy.

Too snaggy at times.

But, I concur with the main idea.
Tunnels by Roderick Gordon

There's some lameness (e.g. hopes and dreams) followed by something cool and freaky. Then more lameness (trying to shape characters) and then bam! something weird and freaky again.




I'm interested and kind of entertained as in, I will keep reading when the next one comes out. For no good reason. No bad reasons, either. Maybe just curiosity.

This book is common sense for people who have, oh, SENSE.

I hope this book serves well, though, unfortunately, I doubt that the people who SHOULD be reading this book actually are.

Still, good times! I recommend it!
