Marginalia

Dog-ear and Marginalia #work #books #cataloging #libraries #marginalia

I worked today, because I will need to take time off Tuesday to pick up my car. One of the books I cataloged was a gift, and it was full of marginalia and annotated dog ears.

I know writing in books makes some people break out in hives I love it, though.

Morning Sky

Morning sky and newly paved parking lot #indianaskies #skies #morning #iu #indianauniversity #iubloomington #parkinglot

There has been a whole lot of coworker angst about the repaving of the 10th Street parking lot. You’d think the world was ending. For reals. They closed the west end of the lot a few weeks ago, completely dug it up, relaid bedding, and repaved it. It opened yesterday afternoon, so this was the first day I was able to park there. It’s pretty!

And now they’ll close the smaller east end of the lot. I expect another round of coworker angst, because duh.

(Seriously, someone was upset that he had to walk twenty feet farther to get to work. If he’s disabled, he can get a pass and park in the lot right behind the library. Otherwise, suck it up, buttercup! A short walk is good for you.)

Not EMS

Unfortunate Letter Choice #signs #parking

The university is changing the codes on employee parking permits, to standardize them across campuses. What was previously a C permit will now be an EM-S permit. Not to be confused with EMS (emergency medical services).
