Today I realized that I am signed up to attend a half day conference on identifying ways that patrons can better interact with the library web site tomorrow afternoon, work a table at the Parents As Reading Partners representing the library tomorrow night and I forgot to pick up the gift certificates they need for the PARP kickoff tomorrow. I am conducting weekly storytelling activities, completing Saturday activities, making bookmarks and creating displays for women's month, March themes and events and assisting with a collection development for juvenile nonfiction. I was becoming anxious about all of the activities that I was trying to complete. So, I have decided that I needed to make a decision as to what is more important to address the goals I have made for myself during this internship. The conference tomorrow does not meet the goals for my internship so I needed to decide not to attend. I already feel less stressed.
I am gaining a following at the preschool story hour and by creating book marks for the front desk, we are getting more publicity for the activities planned. People are asking for a list of activities going on so making a bookmark was an easy fix. Displays are also helping showcase books on specific topics so I have been focusing on the juvenile collection. This week after publicity and activities are set I need to refocus my attention on getting my resume ready.
