Palindrome Week!

This week is a Palindrome Week - that means that each date this week can be read the same way backwards and forwards. For instance, today is 6/16/16 - 61616.

6.12.16 (Sunday)
6.13.16 (Monday)
6.14.16 (Tuesday)
6.15.16 (Wednesday)
6.16.16 (Thursday)
6.17.16 (Friday)
6.18.16 (Saturday)

In the Dewey Decimal System, there are also palindromes. There are several legitimate Dewey Decimal Numbers that read the same backwards and forwards:

615.8516: Biblitherapy
976.679: Le Flore County, Oklahoma
331.4133: Women's Rights
363.7363: Management of Pollution in the Environment
621.3126: Energy Storage in Engineering

And of course,

331.890410263362014098133: labor-management bargaining and disputes in libraries devoted to local taxes, in ParaĆ­ba state, Brazil.
