Daily Thoughts 08/10/2015

On the way to work, I read some more of Future Crimes by Marc Goodman.  I am reading about biohacking and designer viruses and the potential for harm.


I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.


Tomorrow Arlen Schumer is doing a slideshow on comics from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the Grace Greene Baker Community Room.  He is author of The Silver Age of Comic Book Art.

I spent some time writing some short summaries.  I wrote about the Latino Americans 500 Years of History Grant, crowdfunding for libraries, and the Select Reads service.

I have a copy of the latest New York Times Book Review to read.
