I managed to see one video on YouTube, Rock 'n' Roll Library, a project done by some University of Pittsburgh Library School students. It was pretty cute, about a nerd who becomes a cool guitarist thanks to books he reads at the library. I tried to post it to my blog. I signed myself up to be able to do that, but then I couldn't get any videos to come up at all. They just kept loading. It's a peak time right now, after school time, so maybe I can have better luck later. I tried to view a lot of different videos with library themes. Some sounded cute, but I couldn't see any of them. I'll try again later. (I have seen quite a few YouTube videos broadcast on the Today Show. They seem to put them on the air when they are big hits around the world.)
I should have more to add later, but I want to keep moving for now.

Now it's the next day, October 3, and I still can't see any YouTube videos. They just won't come up. Also I tried the search for Library again, and it said: "Searching for videos is temporarily unavailable."

Here is my avatar! I'm in a restaurant waiting to be shown to my table (along with my cat -- must be in Paris).

About Me
- Karen Lamis
- Bel Air, Maryland, United States
- I grew up in South Carolina, primarily in Charleston. My B.A. is from the University of South Carolina (with credits from the Univ. of Georgia and the Univ. of Arizona). I completed a year toward a Masters in Comparative Literature at Indiana University in Bloomington, and I received my M.S.L.S. from Columbia University in New York. That was a fun year living on Riverside Drive in Mahattan. I have worked as a librarian at HCPL for 27 years. I took a year off in 1986-87 to go with my husband (now ex) abroad when he taught on U.S. Air Force bases in England, Greece, Spain, and Turkey. We were able to travel a lot on weekends and in other countries during the weeks between posts. We "adopted" four kittens from the streets of Greece and Turkey and had no difficulty transporting them between countries and back to the U.S. The last remaining cat died this year at the age of 20. In recent years my hobbies have been playing golf and going out dancing, but recently I have spent a lot of time helping my 95-year-old mother.
