    An 85 year old man is using our library's adult literacy tutor to learn to read for the first time today. He even brought a new pencil case and notebook and showed up 30 minutes early to walk the stacks. Libraries are the best!

    Me: Surely people will heed the flash flood warnings and stay home from the library today. Narrator: They will not.

    I want to believe that quote came from this teen:

    When you want to put the book in their hand and get back to the reference desk, but they're taking their sweet time.

    Dear Patron, Yes the AARP is doing taxes at the library. No they are not the animal huggers organization. I'm glad to clear that up for you. Cheers, David

    Picked up tie box donations for the tiebrary today! Huge thanks to Brooks Brothers and Bloomingdale’s for agreeing to help us out on the spot!

    Thanks to Facebook for reminding me that today is the two year anniversary of one of the best questions I’ve ever had the pleasure of answering at work: Patron: Do you remember RoboCop? Me: Yes. Patron: Me too. *patron walks away

    A patron who finally found housing got a library card after years using guest passes every day. His first stop after moving in was here so he could invite some of his friends on computers in a similar situation over to his new place. We're all doing our best!

    Patron disrupted a peaceful 2 minutes in reference by yelling "Damn you to hell, Janice!" and hitting her monitor. Now I am imagining what terrible thing Janice did to illicit such a reaction!

    Helped a veteran bring up his VA Medical Records on microfiche and then we talked for about an hour by the machines. We're thinking of reserving a meeting room once a week for a veteran's meetup. Hit me up if your library has done something similar.

    I'm so glad is coming to Atlanta on her paperback tour in support of Mostly Dead Things! The Highland Inn is a perfect venue too. I'm sure this will be packed with librarians!

    Patiently waiting for this reference calendar sentiment to come true while a patron yells at me because I told him Alaska was a state when everyone knows “it’s just an island!”

    Warby Parker Employee: Dave behind the Reference Desk can help you. Me: Cool! Can I get a computer pass from him too? WPE: We only sell glasses. Me: Oh I’m a libr...never mind. CAN’T ESCAPE REFERENCE DESKS!

    If your name is Westley, and you immediately request four different supplies from my reference desk after I place a book on hold for you, there’s only one possible way I’m going to respond. I’m sorry. I don’t make the rules.

    A patron just told me that I look like a lumberjack who forgot he had a job interview until the last second, and honestly, he’s not wrong.

    A kid just printed out Pokemon images and made a book of them while his mom worked on a PC. I helped stave off a tantrum because I found our sewing supplies and taught him how to do a five-hole pamphlet stitch so he didn't have to 'staple any of his Pokemon." Crisis averted!

    Patron just yelled out from a table on the quiet study floor, "Oh god, it's only two thirty?" and I'm not even upset. I feel the exact same way.

    One of the best book signings I worked at B&N was the psychic who re-published his book with the words “Endorsed by and Housed at the Library of Congress” on the cover because he applied for and received CIP data. He kept saying, “I knew they’d come!” when someone came in.

    R.I.P. Terry Jones. I'll never forget when you led the entire sold out in a rendition of 'Always Look On the Bright Side of Life' after a 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' screening.
