You certainly don't need my permission but it's granted anyway. Libraries are a public good and a boon for communities, and they buy books from authors so you can read them. Sure, buy my books if you can, but never feel bad about getting them from a library under any circumstance. They are awesome.

And I thank you and other like-minded authors for giving me permission to read a library copy of your books once in awhile bc I really can’t afford to buy everything that my reading appetite desires.

Also libraries are AWESOME. ♥️📚♥️

Fellow Primo users, fyi: latest update changed the behaviour of the email button from giving a box into which you entered an email address to opening an email client (like Outlook). There isn't a way to revert, because security.

Library patron: Didn't Sulu die recently, too?
Me: Go outside turn around three times and spit right now. Do NOT speak that into being.

Patron: I followed the recipe but the dish I made was disgusting. Grant: A friend of mine says recipes are more of a suggestion than a map. Patron: "Add three cups of flour" seems exact to me. Grant: Yet "combine ingredients by stirring" requires judgement. Patron: No, that's pretty exact. Grant: But you could stir slowly. Or go at it like a high speed centrifuge! It's entirely your call. Grant: What are you writing? Patron: A note to myself not to bother asking you people for more help.

It's Monday morning, so that means #library whiteboard staff engagement time.

A whiteboard with the question: what definitely does and what definitely does not belong on a full English breakfast.

I need to make myself a to do list for today but I can't make myself a list until I get a fountain pen out and I can't use that pen until I decide what ink I want to use and . . . #LibraryLife

Today at work I ticked off the entire Librarian's bingo card.
Leaking toilet. How do I print? Fixing staplers. Complex search strategies. Do you have any spare paper / glue stick / sticky tape? Complex referencing. Simple referencing. Can you turn down the heating? (I wish) #LibraryLife #SwotVac

a trip down memory lane
a screenshot of a Facebook post from eight years ago that reads: "It's looking quite likely that I'm going to have a "we need to talk about your behavior" conversation with a patron while dressed as soulless, unblinking Gumby. #librarylife" and underneath that is the aforementioned Gumby costume and a speech bubble that reads "no more porn for you, buckaroo!"

Wait, those 2 were returned but kid took out another one with an enby protagonist.

I just want these kids to be safe and have access to books.

Sometimes #LibraryLife is tiring.

Those are both extremely sweet, extremely age-appropriate books.

But oh no. Girls kissing girls? The horror.

Happy BookFaceFriday!

Bookface photo of a staff member with the book “A Grim Reaper’s Guide to Catching a Killer” by Maxie Dara. Bookface photos are when staff pose with a book cover to visually align themselves with the image on the cover, creating an optical illusion.

A pumpkin headed monster is telling a story to Amy at the reference desk. Monster: One time I saw a child in a library who insisted it could pick up a large large print book without help. Narration: It managed to get the book off the ground but then it fell on top of the kid. A child monster struggling to lift a heavy leather book Child: Leave me alone I'm reading." The book is on the floor , a bloody smear under it. Narration: Those were its last words. And no one paid for the bloodstained book. Amy: Again, please stop making up stories in an effort to relate to us. Title box: Not based on a true (human) story.
