Strange Goings On in the Library
I heard some peculiar noises upstairs after the carpeting installers left. When I went to investigate I could not believe my eyes. This is what happens when Librarians are so deliriously happy to get new carpeting- they make carpet angels. Get This Blog via Email: Powered by Squeet.com ...

Things Librarians Think Are Cool
We were so taken with these floating bookshelves that we had to share them with you. They would not be practical, nor would they fit in at our Carnegie library; but floating bookshelves, how cool is that? We have no affiliation with the company that makes these shelves, and this is not an endorse...

Rob Pattinson on a Stick
It was late Tuesday night and we were busy closing the Library when I noticed a man lurking in the Teen Loft. It gave me quite a turn because I didn't think anyone was in the mezzanine. When I looked more closely I realized it was Rob Pattinson's sweet face staring back at me, not moving. For tho...

David Sedaris on Halloween
Remember when you went trick or treating? The joy of dumping out a full bag of candy, sorting it into piles of favorite candies (Snickers, peanut butter cups) and undesirable candies to be swapped with siblings or friends (peppermint patties, lollipops). David Sedaris remembers, and he is at hi...
