Love the Liberry: Unique Thanks
http://lovetheliberry.blogspot.com/2015/06/unique-thanks.html
Stranger than fiction.we couldn't possibly make these things up. Friday, June 12, 2015. Five minutes to closing I helped a woman with the printer and then with her fines. Before she left, she pointed to a picture of a man's face on a book. She said, "Look at this guy's face. Can you see bliss and love? That's you. Thank you for helping me tonight.".

Love the Liberry: Sauerkraut
http://lovetheliberry.blogspot.com/2015/08/sauerkraut.html
Stranger than fiction.we couldn't possibly make these things up. Tuesday, August 04, 2015. On Sunday and Monday we received 3 reference phone calls about recipes for sauerkraut. Obviously the cabbages are coming in. Do you think they were all from the same person, or different people? Which would be weirder, I wonder. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

About the Practical Librarian. Professional and Career Development. Library Lost and Found. Flea Vs. Lion. Collection Analysis: Median vs Average. There is more to understanding a collection age beyond average and thanks to Emma.

http://lovetheliberry.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-choice.html
Stranger than fiction.we couldn't possibly make these things up. Thursday, June 11, 2015. Making a library card for a young man:. Okay, which card design do you prefer? Stares at them both) Uh. I know, it's a momentous decision. I hate them both so much. I like the subtlety of the black one, but there are all these pictures of kids and old people on it, it's gross. Great, red it is.
