Me: I need a library card, but I just moved so I don’t have an ID with my address or any mail with it.

Librarian: -slides me a blank library postcard- Write your address on this like it would be mailed to you.

Me: Sure?

Librarian: -takes it back- Great! Now we have mail with your address on it!

Me: …does it really work that way?

Librarian: the rules don’t say it DOESN’T work that way. Here’s your new library card!

Librarians are the most dangerous magic users because they can aquire infinite knowlege

“There actually isn’t a rule that says I can’t cast this spell. I checked.”

“Which book?”

I’m seriously considering becoming a Park Ranger. Maybe I’m passionate about nature. Maybe I think I’d look sexy in the outfit. Nobody knows, but it’s happening.

[c3rvida3]

I’m still going to library school, but if I get my ranger certification, I can open the world’s first library just for deer, with deer books about deer things.

Adventures in Librarian-ing

So this little kid donated a book to the library a couple weeks ago. 

They’ve been coming into the library every so often to look proudly at their book on display and tell anyone who’ll listen about how they donated THAT book, it has a sticker the librarian had them pick out that they got to sign their name on in the inside cover and everything!!!! (I saw them once excitedly insist a high schooler grab the book and open it to see the sticker, much to the high schooler’s amusement, lol).

Today they came into the library to ask me where their book was, ‘cause they’d looked around the past little while and couldn’t find it anywhere.

“Ah, that’s ‘cause it’s out right now,” I explained.

Their jaw dropped and their eyes went wide, “It’s out?!”

“Yep! It’s not here because it’s at somebody’s house right now.”

“AT THEIR HOUSE?!”

They started practically vibrating in excitement.

“Yep!”

“Like, for real?”

“Uh huh.” I grinned, “It’s the second time it’s been taken out too.”

“TWICE?! It’s been taken out TWICE already?! Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!!!!”

Something tells me that’s all they’ll be talking about tonight at dinner. lol

Seeker, Job

On a busy day, I looked over toward the children’s area and noticed a 5-year-old kid sitting at the Children’s Services desk while the librarian was off helping another patron.

I approached the kid and before I could say anything, he looked up and said, “I took your job.”

This is the opposite of that one video where a guy walks towards a group of cats wearing a cat mask only for all of them to run away from him.

me placing 30 library holds with no regard for my future time management:

[archivistic]

“Eventually, I just started reading the children’s library alphabetically, working my way through it author by author. I cannot imagine being happier than that. I would walk home when the library closed at 6, and be home in time for dinner. It was a perfect arrangement, one marred only by hunger, so I would take a sandwich in a plastic bag, and grudgingly head outside to the parking lot to scoff it as quickly and efficiently as I could. Eating time was not reading time.”
