Amazon discontinued the ability to create images using their SiteStripe feature and in their infinite wisdom broke all previously created images on 12/31/23. Many blogs used this feature, including this one. Expect my archives to be a hot mess of broken book cover images until I can slowly comb through 20 years of archives to make corrections.

A Dubious Distinction

Today marks the 3rd anniversary of this blog.

I'm not sure exactly what this signifies. Probably that:
  • I have no life
  • You all have no life because you keep reading it

Misadventures Of Super_Librarian sprang out of my now defunct web page where I would occasionally ramble about nonsense that nobody was reading. Blogs were just coming into infancy at that time, and I found the format easier to update than a traditional web page. Why I was deluding myself that anyone other than my family gave a hooey about anything I had to say remains a mystery to this day. Actually my family probably doesn't give a hooey either - but they at least smile and nod their heads.

This blog has seen me as an adult services librarian in podunk Michigan, a branch manager in the surburban sprawl of southern California, and a soon-to-be collection development librarian for the same California library system. My library stories have gone from boring, to surreal, and hopefully back to boring. I'm keeping my fingers crossed anyway.

And for the record - the new job starts on Friday, March 3.

Happy late anniversary and yes, so I have no life, but I think lives are overrated.
