How are you doing?

How are you doing? Are you getting enough hours? Is subbing your main livelihood or do you have another job? Do you work part time at the library and fill in your week with sub hours? Are you looking for full time work?

I sub in the HCL suburban branches, but work there has almost completely dried up. I sub in the HCL urban branches, and downtown, but there too, there are never enough hours. I'm averaging about 20 hours a week lately. It's a nice time of year to have extra time off, but I wish I could get more hours. I'm perpetually on the fence about going back to Dolphin Staffing, my other employer, to see what they have available.

How about you?

ALA Wikis and 23 Things on a Stick

The American Library Association has lots of wikis! Look at the ReadWriteConnect page for blogs, wikis, flikr, videos, RSS feeds, even ALA in virtual worlds like Second Life!

If we get our act together and want to take the show on the road, we can add a page for substitute librarians.
