Today I'm thankful for...
The Dewey Decimal System!
Today is Melvil Dewey's birthday. If you don't know who he is, check out this page about him (yes, I know I used that website. It's easy and convenient, so there...). Dewey was a librarian rock star, but his most famous contribution to librarianship was the Dewey Decimal System AKA the way books are shelved in many libraries. For an organizing nerd like me, a system like this is wonderful. Everything has a place and can be categorized fairly neatly. I also put my radio stations in chronological order and color code my closet, so perhaps it's no surprise that I love the Dewey Decimal System so much!
