Busy Day....

We had a busy day today!

Typically, we average.... maybe 400 people a day. Give or take. However, on this busy day, we had a head count of 850 people!

Summer is here. So is our Summer Reading Program activities. I'm sure that had something to do with this high number. By the end of the day, we were all brain dead and uber tired.  But through it all, we were still laughing at closing time.

I love my job!

Ghostie Hunters at the library!

Bossman decided that it would be fun if his ghost hunting friends came to our library and "did their thing".  It isn't the first time they've been here.  There were here about 10 years ago (maybe) in June as well.  I wasn't there at that time, so I'm not sure how it went, but my co-workers tell me that LAST time there were too many people.

We had 12 people there last night, but only 3-4 on the floor, at a time. Several of us were barefooted or in stocking'd feet.  See pic below.

As I go thru my sound bytes, I will post them here.  Hope we captured something!  For now, I am off to transcribe what I captured.

My digital recorder and our barefooted camera lady!

Missing Chairs?

How does a library suddenly lose chairs? We jokingly blamed the ghosties, but seriously.... where the heck can chairs disappear to? It isn't like a patron can just roll one out of the library. Nor can they tuck a chair into their book bag!

These aren't tiny little kid chairs from the Children's section. They were regular chairs! Not the folding kind. The hard plastic kind.

UPDATE 10/25/14: It's still a mystery. The chairs have not been found.
