gobby's created a blog for the Marathon Library at gobbysml.blogspot.com. As gobby sez, "It's all about our books, our patrons, our community..."
Come join us & our Branch Manager, Gloria Goodman, at the Monroe County Public Library, George Dolezal Branch (aka Marathon Library).
What is your Library worth to you?
Just for fun, try this neat calculator from the State Library and Archives of Florida to discover how much extra it would cost you if you didn't have the services of the Marathon Branch Library--or any other library in Monroe County...
Aren't you lucky? ENJOY!!

"Count That Day As Lost" by George Eliot
If you sit down at set of sun
And count the acts that you have done,
And, counting, find
One self-denying deed, one word
That eased the heart of him who heard,
One glance most kind
That fell like sunshine where it went—
Then you may count that day well spent.
But if, through all the livelong day,
You’ve cheered no heart, by yea, or nay—
If, through it all
You’ve nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face—
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost—
Then count that day as worst than lost.
Remember: How you handle Today determines your Tomorrows.
And count the acts that you have done,
And, counting, find
One self-denying deed, one word
That eased the heart of him who heard,
One glance most kind
That fell like sunshine where it went—
Then you may count that day well spent.
But if, through all the livelong day,
You’ve cheered no heart, by yea, or nay—
If, through it all
You’ve nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face—
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost—
Then count that day as worst than lost.
Remember: How you handle Today determines your Tomorrows.
