Word Woman
Welcome to another innovative installment of Word Woman's Weekly Work-Out! Tonight is a very exciting night at the library, because this will be our premiere display in conjunction with First Friday. My co-worker and fellow blogger, Ben, has posted some great pictures and further information on this event in the last few weeks. Just scroll down and take a look for yourself. We will be showing off our Altered Books in the Large Meeting Room, so if you find yourself downtown tonight, stop in and enjoy our bookish creations! Now, let's get going with the Word of the Week:
Garrulous (gehr-uh-luhs) - excessively loquacious; talking about trivial matters; wordy. -- "The New York Times Everyday Reader's Dictionary of Misunderstood, Misused, Mispronounced Words", Laurence Urdang, Ed., Weathervane Books, 1972.
Example: There are some who accuse Word Woman of being garrulous, but really it is just her love of words speaking.
