Midweek

By Amanda On January 25, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Monday
I spent most of the day working in the computer lab. The time went by so rapidly that in the end I could not even complain. The highlight was a patron reminding me of an earlier conversation we had about website building. I offered her my business card so we could have a [...]

Double the Work

By Amanda On January 22, 2012 · Leave a Comment

I am getting out of the habit of recording my daily work. Coming home to answer emails and forum posts from the WordPress students might have something to do with that. Therefore let’s dive in!

Wednesday
Worked on adding chat boxes to the website, updating a banner, and various odds and ends with the [...]

Surprise Snow

By Amanda On January 17, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Last night, my household caught up with the final episode of the second season of BBC’s Sherlock Holmes. As I went through the house afterwards, I glanced outside the window to a world of white. I’ve been hoping for snow since my hometown has received three snowfalls in the last two weeks when it hardly [...]

Hunger Games

By Amanda On January 15, 2012 · Leave a Comment

I have been preoccupied all week listening to The Hunger Games series of audiobooks (about halfway through the second set. I was able to download the mp3 of Catching Fire quite easily to my phone through my library’s website!). This constant state of hunger and attention to the books has caused me to put off [...]

Nutshell

By Amanda On January 11, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Iron Grid

By Amanda On January 10, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Today was an absolute throw together mess of items. The stand outs would be fleeing my office when the electricians were dragging thick iron (?) cords through the ceiling tiles immediately above my head, doing some small website tweaks, and then dealing with patrons. The first patron asked about a specific program, berated me for [...]

Digital Signage Monday

By Amanda On January 9, 2012 · Leave a Comment

I’m pretty wiped out now, but my today was basically this:

Created nine digital signs. Just as I was finishing up, along came an order for three more. I will set aside some time later this week to get those done. Crafted a new button for the storytime registration. Wrote several emails to patrons [...]

How to Hide Empty Fields in Drupal with PHP

By Amanda On January 9, 2012 · Leave a Comment

The content type I am working with does not require an image. However, if there is no image, the border of the image box still prints. I found the solution to hide an empty field here in comment #9. In essence, you pinpoint the CCK fields that you want to hide if they are [...]
