Week 2


OK . . . so I will admit it, I am a Pinterest-aholic.  It had been 4 weeks, 2 days, 7 hours, and 13 minutes since my last Pinterest visit until I did this assignment.  I have been trying to cut back but it is sooooo hard.

I started to use Pinterest a couple of years ago as a recreational hobby.  I would spend hours just looking at all of the cool things that others pinned in random areas (of course not on work time).    Then I started using it just to look up specific ideas for work and home.   Now it seems like I have not had any more time to go on Pinterest then I have had time to work on this class L. 

One of the boards that I found at http://www.pinterest.com/momason54/library-ideas/ had a great selection of random library ideas including pins of displays, organizational ideas, and books that fit into certain search criteria that would be hard to search for using our circulation program such as “Books with Diverse Characters”  and “Funny Books for Kids”.  I definitely will be using some of these! 

Another pinners board at http://www.pinterest.com/queenjennlynn/library-ideas/ I will have to admit I clicked on originally just because she had over 1300 pins and over 500 followers.  Now I see why.  She has accumulated everything from cartoons and displays to program ideas and crafts.  I love this one.  I am not a big fan of following pinners (clogs up my email) but I might have to make an exception for this one.
