I taught 3 classes yesterday morning, and then had to be on the reference desk in the early evening. So I came home and slept for around 11 hours.

The instructor for a couple of the classes basically just wanted time in the library for his class to work on their assignment with a librarian hanging out nearby to help them. So I didn’t actually “teach” a whole lot, other than a few introductory remarks when I figured out that no one in the class had used the library before. Then, I had mini-reference consultations with every student in the class. And afterwords the instructor thanked me for not talking very much. I have no problem not talking during an instruction session, if that’s what is requested. And at 8:00 in the morning, I tend to doubt my ability to speak coherently, so it worked for me too.

Via journalista, evidently Alan Moore is so evil and so Hollywood that he wrote League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as a smokescreen for Fox Studios, because the idea for League really came from an unproduced script by Larry “Phone Booth” Cohen.
That’s funny!

I don’t know about this blogs and ISSN thing. I don’t think there is anything wrong with getting an ISSN for your blog, if you can, but I wonder if our issn registry has the man/womanpower to assign the numbers to blogs.
