This week at the library

What's happening

• Monday was the final eclipse madness. I took the day off (totally coincidentally - I had forgotten at the time that there was an eclipse) and my associate got stuck with the activities and madness. She's leaving in a week so won't have the opportunity for revenge for this...
• I no longer have words for the rest of this week. It's all gone crazy. We now only have one hamster.
• I spent the rest of the week
• Planning book clubs
• Cleaning stuff off my desk
• Getting ready for the new staff
• Planning other programs

Reading Explorer

I'm also working today and I haven't had a moment to breathe. Computer problems, plugged toilets, reader's advisory, never-ending stream of people. We're busy! A partial list of Saturday...

• At least an hour or more spent dealing with the printer
• Microfilm and local history resources
• Reader's advisory for teachers - middle school, 4K
• Searching for a missing video game that's gotten screwed up in the catalog
• Men's bathroom issues
• Dealing with fines and other issues as the Librarian in Charge
• Helping patrons with the copier
• Helping a patron with a reference question
• Is the new Gifted movie based on a book? After some search, the answer is no

Also still working on book clubs, filling displays, tidying the children's area, reviewing schedules and work for next week, and more.
