A Friday hanging out at my Local Library

     I took the time to go to my local library, Dee Brown Library on Baseline in Southwest Little Rock. Upon entering, my attention fell upon a yellow sign. With a yellow sun in the top left corner and the Central Arkansas Library System Logo on the bottom right, the words were printed in different colors.

Library's programs for kids & teens

I was quite impressed, No misspelled words and perfect punctuation but I do expect that from a library.
     If I can get away from work and have a couple of extra dollars, I'll go see what kind of treasures they will be selling. If I can get a hold of some of my favorite authors or books, that I wish I could read without the limited time frame by just checking it out from the library, would be a bargain. I know that main library downtown has book sales but I never seem to get to attend them.
     The local library has good programs catered to children so I fit in just fine because I am still a kid at heart. I wanted to browse to see if I could find any books that would just catch my eye and after 5 minutes I found a book called "Speed it Up!" A non-technical guide for speeding up slow computers by Michael Miller Copyright 2009. After looking through it, I thought it might help my 2 year old desktop that I haven't even turned on in a month after getting it repaired.
    






      I wondered over to the fiction section to see if any of them caught my eye. I couldn't find any books other than one book by Marcus Sakey "The Blade Itself" so maybe I'll just have to check online to see if I can reserve something of his from another library.        
    









      Unusually noisy children came in for some kind of program so I just headed over to the shelf with the videos. One video that came from TV is Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan. I loved to watch it but I haven't seen it in a while but that maybe because we don't have Animal Planet. I also picked up "The Virtual Job Interview" Why? Well, it's because I want to know how to go through the interview process and actually get the job. At the check out I also got a FREE Green Bag to tote my books and DVDs.

     So that's about it except for a couple of free magazines in the hallway. The Arkansas Times and The Book Page.
     What is available at your local library? If you don't like to read, you can check out audio books or DVDs. Another thing you may not know is they have computers. Yes, you have to reserve a computer for a limited hour but you can take your laptop and plug in for totally Free HighSpeed Internet.

 It is all totally FREE!

And they had also given me this FREE magnet to put my receipt in to keep up with when I need to return the books.
