I probably can't really be an LCARS librarian since I'm stuck in the pre-warp drive for humans early part of the 21st century. Bummer. But if I could be an LCARS librarian I would.

We had about 12-15 people with us and the response from the city and crowd was incredible! There was this definite feeling of, … Continue reading North Shore Pride
In praise of button machines and amazing coworkers
As I was getting ready to leave work yesterday I asked Virginia one of our new teen aides to post an Instagram picture since I had totally forgotten. It was so nice to have someone take care of this - admittedly - super simple thing for me. It was great to have I was REALLY ready … Continue reading In praise of button machines and amazing coworkers
