http://offuttlibrary.blogspot.com/2008/03/tv-on-web-take-2.html
Saturday, March 22, 2008. TV on the Web, Take 2. A web-only commercial for a TV show? Based on a TV-only commercial?

http://offuttlibrary.blogspot.com/2008/03/free-nebraska-public-libraries.html
Saturday, March 1, 2008. Free Nebraska Public Libraries? For those who are new to Nebraska, no, not everyone in Nebraska has a free public library. Including those who don't live within city limits, and for a long time, that included people who lived in military housing. Why? But what about Douglas County? Well, Douglas County hands over a certain amount of taxes to the Omaha Public Library so that all Douglas County residents have access to the Omaha Public Library system. Thomas S. Power Library.

Library Director's Lair: Publishers & libraries
http://offuttlibrary.blogspot.com/2008/03/publishers-libraries.html
Friday, March 28, 2008. Why do publishers like to have their books in libraries? You see an intriguing new book at your local bookstore, but YIKES! That's almost enough to take your date to the movies. (As long as you share your popcorn.). But hey, check it out from the library, read it, see what you think. If you really like it, then you can either go ahead and buy it (if you like hardbacks) or wait until it comes out in paperback next year. So having one book at the library sells a whole lot more.

http://offuttlibrary.blogspot.com/2008/03/sanctuary-starcrossed-scificom-watching.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2008. Sanctuary, Starcrossed and SciFi.com: Watching TV Online. TV sure is changing. Not only are we all going digital and having the choice of going High-Def, but we're getting other new options as well. How about TV shows that are only available on the web? Enter SciFi.com, which seems to be leading the way to TV-less television. Their Sci Fi Rewind video player is being upgraded for better streaming video of full-length TV shows. Last season online, nine hours before broadcast.

Taking over Bellevue, one teen event at a time! Book review: “The Fault in Our Stars” by John Green. August 9, 2013. This book has been read by nearly everyone and I have nothing that I can really add that nearly everyone hasn’t already screamed, while in sorrow-filled tears of joy, that it is an amazing book. In fact, let me present some information about the world in relation to this book in a way that I think both Augustus Waters and Hazel Grace would appreciate:. Granted, they have little space at al...
