Happy Friday and last day of 2010! We're going to celebrate the start of the new year by taking some time off. (I know, I just got back from taking some time off in December. After this, I will be back at the grindstone until spring, I promise.) Updates will be erratic and spotty until we get back to the usual schedule on Monday, January 10. The Spooky Librarians wish everyone a very happy new year!

From Julie: Neanderthals ate cooked vegetables. There goes THAT excuse for kids...

From Cassandra: Less work, more life! That's the Dutch way, and many Americans wish it was that way here as well.

Has anyone tried out Pinterest yet? From what I've seen so far, it looks like a librarian's dream!

Imgur has picked their ten favorite images of 2010.

Have a spiffy holiday and weekend and week, everyone! See you next year!
