"Using GTD to Get Things Done at Your Library," by Robin Hastings

Robin Hastings. "Using GTD to Get Things Done at Your Library." Computers in Libraries 31:8 (2011): 23-26.

I recommend reading this article to give you an introduction to David Allen's Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity (GTD). Originally published in 2001, GTD has remained a bible of sorts for productivity junkies. Allen offers reams of helpful advice about how to get and stay organized and keep on top of all the things you have to do at work and in any other part of your life. Hastings provides a nice intro to this book and applies the lessons learned to our particular library environment. I haven't had a chance to review GTD on this blog yet (it's on the list!), but in short, I agree completely with Hastings assessment of the high value of GTD when applied at work.
