Are you on Facebook or other social media outlet to communicate with your community? There are often community groups you can join. I know that if a parent posted your message on the community group I follow, that kid would have half the town showing up at a party.

My mailman was the first to congratulate me. by dsully1328 in funny

Yeah, history is a great compliment to an MLS. You see a lot of history and english majors getting an MLS and going into various library fields.

If you want to be a librarian, never ever major in library science. I honestly don't even know why it exists as an undergrad major. You basically end up doing an MLS on long/easy mode, and then do it again on short/hard mode.

What accent? by mstarrbrannigan in TalesFromTheCustomer

Maybe you were having a minor stroke or something at the time?

It takes a lot for me to ask for help...but I've got to do it...at my wits end...and getting deeper by quirkynerdgirl in autism

You seem interested in writing, but have trouble organizing yourself and end up stalling. May I suggest that you participate in NaNoWriMo this year? Perhaps the race to get words down on paper at top speed will cut down on the stalling that keeps you from getting your writing done.

Sorry I don't have any better advice, but I wish you the best.

Where ever you are look around! by Nixplosion in zombies

Everyone including my immediate family? Husband is two floors up, both kids are one floor up, I am alone on this floor right next to a door to the outside. I could get out pretty easily, but after that? We're in faux-rural suburbia here, so everything is inconveniently far away without a car. I guess I'd try to make it to the garage and go from there.

I'm an aspie[F 23] and I need a serious advice about recognizing when someone is flirting... by Edith_Keat in aspergers

I'm so sorry I don't have any advice for the question you asked, but the story about the second guy really alarmed me. If you do meet him face to face, please bring your boyfriend or another friend. Don't be alone.

What should I be asking my mother before she dies? by publicfrog in AskWomen

[–]CT_Librarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Record her voice. A loved one just died recently, and while I can still hear his voice in my head, I don't actually have any recordings of him speaking. I'm so afraid that some day I will forget what he sounded like.

Edit: Wow, I wrote that without reading any of the comments first and now I see it's the same advice as given in the top comment and several responses. Just goes to show how important it is. Do it.

Thank you. I had the first 25 words, but didn't want to pay for the rest since I didn't think it would give me any more leads. Thank you very much for the rest of it though, I really appreciate it!

Tales of the Marvellous and News of the Strange - 1000 year old stories in English for the first time [1853 x 2578] by sam1905 in bookporn

[–]CT_Librarian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From Amazon:

A great cache of ancient, magical stories in the same tradition as The Arabian Nights, Tales of the Marvellous and News of the Strange is an extraordinary find. Dating from at least a millennium ago, these are the earliest-known Arabic short stories, which survived in a single, ragged manuscript in a library in Istanbul. Some found their way into The Arabian Nights, but most have never been read in English before. Composed to fascinate their original audiences, these charming, surreal, baffling, and beautiful stories are indeed both marvelous and strange.

Lovers Leap, New Milford. This is peace by BATTLEMAGE420 in Connecticut

This is one of the only places I've ever been in New Milford. Six or seven years ago, there was a letterbox hidden near by. :)

[Connecticut] What's some good wording that will deter people from using misusing a student directory? by CT_Librarian in legaladvice

[–]CT_Librarian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The families are invited to submit as much or as little of their contact information as they want to if they want to be a part of the directory. It's not mandatory by any means.

I think your line is perfect actually. I'm going to go ahead and use that.

Thanks!

Not really trying to "prevent," just send a clear message that such behavior is not acceptable. Also, if it happens again, I want to be able to show the folks who are upset about it that I have made an effort to tell people not to do that. Basically, I'm just looking for official-sounding legalese.
