and we're off...

Welcome to the very first post of the blog for the Social Sciences division @ MLK Jr. Memorial library. I spent some valuable time at the reference desk today attempting to come up with a clever name for this blog. Alas I grew impatient and settled on the oh-so-creative dcpl-socialsciences. The poetry division, this is not.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions, the top two runners-up were my mother with BobsBiblioBlog, and Matthew, the Arts LA with Do or Die Social Sci. Please drop by http://dcplartsandlit.blogspot.com and check out what matthew and the Arts + Humanities Division at MLK are up to (usually it is a lot).

This site is a work in progress- expect grammatical errors and a disregard for word capitalization. This space will highlight new books in the collection, library programs, and local, national, or global events and stories relating to the social sciences and libraries.
