It's Sunday night. I am trying to think of what I need to do this week. I have a couple of appointments, a couple of meetings, and need to continue to get ready for the grant. Oh, didn't I tell you? We were awarded a $129,000 grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). Last week I sent requests for proposals to four different library supply houses for a microform reader/scanner, a map case, and a storage cabinet for microforms. Also a 27" TV because we are going to have video games here. Thursday nights will be girls night when we will do Dance, Dance Revolution.

We're also going to get a Dungeons and Dragons group going. They are all legit literacy activities, and besides it will bring kids into the library.

I hate meetings. Especially hate administrative meetings. Bad things happen at administrative meetings. Thankfully there won't be another one till a week from Thursday. I have a whole week free, Free, FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!

One think I have to do is start working on grant reports. They are all due Oct. 31. Reports are due on the tribal appropriation, the Basic Library Grant and the final narrative and performance reports on the last IMLS grant we got in 2003. We just wrapped that one up after a one-year extension. That was a two-year grant for $141,000.

I still have quite a bit of cataloging to do on those #$&*! electronic government documents! I suppose I won't be able to postpone working on those this week. LOL
