“DO YOU HAVE ECLIPSE...”

[wecanthavethat]

Over half our phone calls for the past two weeks have been about eclipse glasses, we as a county decided to wait until this up coming Monday to hand them out, first come first serve, one per person present, when we run out, we run out. We’ve got 3 staff members out on Monday, and we’ll probably run out by noon. It’s going to be redunculous, and I’m a little bit excited.

Someone at our library decided we’re only handing them out the Saturday before the eclipse and thank GOD I am not working that day

We’re doing it on Thursday.  My desk is right across from the circulation desk and about 75% of the calls have been about the glasses.
