Summer Reading List

[ea000blaze]

You would think studying to be a library technician would mean I'm reading all the time. Oh how misinformed you are. I have accumualted maaaaany books that I've not even opened over the past few years. Or I start them and lay them aside and forget about them. So, this summer I have decided since I'll be working part time but won't have school

Oh Cataloguing, how I loved it. Not. I did always like LoC better than Dewey though. MARC was kinda fun too.

P&P&Z was awesome, I haven't had a chance to read Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter yet, nor Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters. They're on my list after the other huge pile of books I've got, including several YA re-reads such as Harriet the Spy.

Congrats on the job!

Argh, if you get an anonymous comment, that would be me, I forgot I cleaned the cache of the browser and it logged me out of LJ.

I was just looking over the books, and a lot of them have been made into movies. Can you imagine P&P&Z as a feature film?

I'm not learning about Subject Cataloguing til next year, and funnily enough, we learn Dewey the last term, even though I had to use it in my interview for a clerk position!

Have you found anything yet on the job front?

Natalie Portman's going to be Elizabeth Bennett in P&P&Z actually, and I'm looking foreward to seeing it. They now have a whole section in Coles/Chapters devoted to mashing up classics and the Victorian Era with Zombies and other supernatural creations. I'm excited for Android Karina to come out

Sense and Sensibility is my favorite Jane Austen movie. I've watched it 4 or 5 times in the past few months. I'm always routing for Alan Rickman. I just love the way Emma Thompson made Colonel Brandon a more likeable character in her screenplay. She might have had Rickman in mind. And Hugh Laurie as Mr Parmer was perfect
