For all of those who still use libraries with the Dewey Decimal System, I recently created a new version of the Dewey Decimal System caveman slideshow … leave me a comment or send me an email, and I’ll send it your way. The cartoon above is an example of the quality of the images. Rex May over at his cartoon blog
gave me permission to use his cartoons for the update… please visit …

For you librarians, go visit the LM_NET wiki for a copy of the Dewey slideshow …

Becoming a librarian for me came late in life … 1998 to be exact; eight years after my military retirement.
I became a Librarian of Fortune working for the highest bidder – I even spent a year in Connecticut – the highest-paying school employee state in the nation.
Missed home and the family; came back after a year and no renewal contract… (sigh)
Please send me your caveman DDS presentation!
Hi,
I am a programs Librarian in a Municipality. I am giving a workshop on shelving; can use your slide show in print format for my presentation…
Hello Lesha,
thanks for the encouragement.
If you are a member of LM_NET, you’ll find it on the wikispaces version. The links are in the message below…
If you would rather receive it directly, send me your email address directly …
earlj{dot}moniz{at}gmail{dot}com
OR;
earlj{dot}moniz{at}ymail{dot}com …
and I’ll send it off to you straight-away…
It is in both MS PowerPoint or OpenOffice Impress format…
I’ll send you both – you may then open either and post your own notes and comments before printing them out for your purpose…

Glad to help and hope it goes well. . .
Until that time … Earl J.
Well, good news to report. . .
I did indeed find a new permanent spot for the Dewey slideshow … it is such an obvious fit (sigh) …
I also decided to include Lib101 there as well. . . here is the link …

OR

Once you get there, look for the Dewey link on the left menu list…
I think it’ll be such a wonderful spot to have it for everyone…
AND
a great place for Librarianship101 as well. . . (grin)
Until that time . . . Earl J.
Hello,
I’m the librarian of a private school and we do indeed use Dewey. I’m teaching an Info. Lit. class next term and I’d love to take a look at your slide show to potentially use with students.
Thank you!
Heather
Certainly Heather,
I’m at work at the moment; I’ll send it out this evening… after I go get the grandbaby for a weekend of giggles and grins with her…
I really should load it online somewhere. . . hmmmm…
Until that time … Earl J.
