Things that tend to get me very excited about being a librarian: shiny new resources. Or just things I didn't know existed prior to browsing through some catalog or review in literature.
For instance I'm finally taking the time this morning to go through the Library Journal supplement Reference 2009, and stumbled across Social & Cultural History: Letters and Diaries online. Of course cost is always a factor with many shiny new resources, but I think about all of the students that need primary resources at the reference desk, and I am now aware of one more tool that could be potentially purchased to help them.
And that's always a fun feeling.
