Did some research online this morning on colleges. Drexel and Rutgers are both online, and Drexel is only slightly more expensive than Rutgers. Rutgers, however, requires orientation and once-a-semester meetings, and their Library Sciences campus is in New Brunswick in North Jersey.

In addition to it's School Media Specialist program, Drexel also offers a "Youth Services Specialization" - in other words, a non-school children's librarian. I wouldn't mind that one, either, but I'm afraid it would limit it me to larger libraries or children's libraries in cities. Most small libraries can barely afford a staff of people to help adults, much less kids! On the other hand, it would take less time (3 years part-time, according to Drexel's site) and probably less money.

Spent the rest of the day at work. Work was on-and-off steady. There were some cranky people, and my register froze when I tried to close it towards the end of the day and I had to move...and I had a long line. I hate it when that happens. I just want to get the line moving.

Oh, and my stomach is feeling somewhat better. I drank a lot of chamomile tea and bought Tums and peppermint Lifesavers at work. I'm hoping it'll be good enough tomorrow to do my library volunteering; if not, I'll do it before or after counseling on Thursday. (The weather's looking iffy tomorrow too, rainy and windy.)
