Repurpose Ability

Today I have:

1. Miraculously boiled down all my notes from the NHLA Library 2.0 to a small list of projects I think my library should work on.
2. Come to the conclusion that using social networking tools in a library setting is about repurposing them for use in a library much in the same way that Library 2.0 is about repurposing the library itself.
3. Delighted in introducing a patron with a readers’ advisory question to BookSlut and Trashonista (the latter of which resulted in a huge smile.)
4. Had a patron bring in her suction-cup soap holder, hand it to me, and ask me to help her find where to buy another one.
5. Had the Circ. Desk call up and ask if I was fluent in Spanish. (I am not, but they eventually found someone on staff who was.)
6. Tracked down the contact info for a library in Virginia with the same name as our library, and passed it on to the patron on the phone who thought she was calling Virginia in the first place.
