i went to my local library a few days ago. they have come a long way since my years lost in the children's section, chewing on the corners of books about flying elephants and anthropomorphized apple pies. in days of yore, their book selection was most certainly championed above all other forms. the video section consisted almost entirely of barney tapes, several copies of all of the original star wars, and every jane austen adaptation ever made. cds and tapes? james taylor and frank sinatra (no complaints there, but perhaps a lack of diversity?). said collection was fine predating my teens.
but, they have come up in the ranks! new movies, new music... good music.
however, the best discovery was that you can take out up to 100 cds at a time (difficult with a 200 cd collection) and they load onto itunes!
this maybe be cheating the system a wee bit, but if they haven't prevented it yet, i will take advantage.
so, i welcome to my musical library some new talking heads, raconteurs, and the fratellis.
and as you know, i'm prone to bopping along to new music, so the bopping has commenced.
