GRRRRRRRRR.
In less than nine hours, I will be stepping on a plane to fly off on my vacation. So what does my boss do? She asks me why the library doesn’t have a collection development policy, and would I please write one today? So I patiently explain to her that a collection development policy, even one for a library as small as ours with no actual book budget, is something that takes research and careful wording, and can’t be pulled out of one’s ass in an hour. (Ok, so I didn’t actually use that exact wording.)
Needless to say, I am not tackling this task until after I get back from vacation. Now, however, I’m going to be thinking about it the entire time, and there is an excellent chance that this will detract from my enjoyment of said vacation. Therefore, it may be necessary to drink far more than I had previously planned, in order to put this out of my mind. Doing so will, of course, be a massive challenge, but I think I’m up to it…
