An entry I made in my "journal" at the end of February before my disappearance:

While at the library I realized that, with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, graduating with honors from the State University of Rutgers, along with nearly a decade of experience as a park maintenance worker for the State Park Service, although I have some emotional "issues" and "behavioral quirks," I could be of great assistance to the librarians at the Asbury Park Public Library in a wide range of capacities.

WARNING:  Remember Toole's A Confederacy of Dunces when Ignatius got a job at the library?  He not only got fired after just 2 weeks.  They revoked his library card!

Also recall in the film, Henry Fool, when Henry asked his parole officer if he had any leads on jobs at the school.  The parole officer said it was very difficult ... with his criminal record ...
