Fasten your seat belts…) Although I’ve been attending fewer classes these days due to school fatigue, Gravytrain‘s rampant growth and my move off-campus to downtown Vancouver, I was forced to attend a recent lecture on “professionalism” given by an employee of our faculty, which I found both interesting and amusing.

OPAC The Computerized Catalogue has replaced the old Card Drawer System in libraries that have been computerized. It lets you browse items by author, title, subject, class or ISBN number and a Keyword search is included as well. Another major advantage of this service is that one can browse items not only pertaining to the library from where he/she is making the search but is automatically browsing all the material that is present in all the Public Libraries (and the National Library) both in Malta and Gozo. Clients are also informed of whether the item in question is available or is currently on loan, for example. Clients can make use of the various outlets that are present at the Central Public Library and at the Regional Libraries.

Of all of the current things that I shake my head at, few are as inexplicable as the enormous rise of narcissism – a pathological personality disorder that you can almost certainly observe being played out many hundreds of times a day in your Facebook or Instagram feeds. But… why? Do you know where the word ‘narcissist’ comes from? That’s right – the guy took the modern-day equivalent of a #selfie and HE DIED. Which brings me back to age. The whole ‘shameless’ part is hilarious in and of itself. Shamelessness. Research into this field isn’t exactly new, but it is pretty telling at just how fucked up things are getting. This constant reinforcement of something – regardless of whether or not it’s true – can actually lead one to develop a pathological addiction to the attention of others. What’s the point of all of this?
