Life Long Learning

I've always considered myself a lifelong learner. In fact, I think it's one of the reasons I became a librarian in the first place. I never enjoyed traditional methods of learning such as lecture in a classroom, but I've always like facts, information and hands-on learning. (In fact, I can remember reading the encyclopedia as a child because I'd run out of library books.) In the library I have the opportunity to learn every day. Whether it's by necessity or just because a customer asked an interesting question, I have the tools to pursue the answer.

Looking over the 7 1/2 habits of the life long learner, I don't feel that any specific one will be hard for me. I knew immediately that 'Play' would be the easiest. In fact, I'll have to be careful to not get carried away and spend too much time 'playing'.
