field day

Going to libraries is not an uncommon thing for me. Being that I am a book worm and I like to expand my knowledge on literature. Other than being interested in the books at the New York Public Library, I was also enticed with the history of the library and architecture. I learned that both libraries are extremely useful to the public with various media tools such as books, periodicals, magazines, internet, photography, and reference books. I had a lot of fun in the library because instead of just being bored like Dr. Smith claimed us college students do, my group and I had fun with our assignment in the library. During our search for media resources my group and I encountered a mean librarian that yelled at us for asking a question. Instead of getting mad at the librarian, my friends and I made a joke out of it and had a lot of laughs. When my group finished our assignment we decided to play tag at the library and started to run along the book shelves. So in stead of wallowing in boredom we enjoyed ourselves at the library and also learned how and where to find a good place to work and research .I enjoyed the tour of the library and found what our tour guide told us about how the museum works and functions interesting. Especially when he told us about the way they retrieve the books people ask for. When customers ask for books the employees send the name and author of the book down a tube all the way to the basement where the books are held. Then when they find the book they send it back through the tube up to the desk where the customer is waiting for it. Out trip to the New York Public Library was my first time there and I enjoyed it immensely and I plan to go back there in the future to do further research. Honestly I am not really sticking to my regime of trying to save the planet. The only thing I am still doing that is helping the planet is using my fluorescent light bulbs around my house. And I am also reusing my water bottles instead of buying new ones everyday. I would like to start eliminating the use of plastic bags in my house and would like to start carrying around a large eco friendly canvas bag that I can use daily. I plan on doing more things to help save the planet but I am currently to embedded in my school work to plan the way I will save the planet. Unfortunately…
