The librarians aren't too gossipy with my recent ordering of baby name books. They know we had a pregnant goat, so they think we are looking up names for her.
I was hoping for some library drama - ha ha ha ha!
I always over do it (checking out books), but it sure helps the library stay open.
When I was a kid the library assistants used to call me their job security because I was always requesting and checking out so many books!
On a similar note, when I was in middle or high school I started checking out baby name books for creative writing purposes - I wanted some ideas for character names. I was always really worried that they would think I was a pregnant teen.
I just want to say, I have serious library envy right now. The nearest branch of the local library is closed for renovations, and I can't find their temporary site! I AM a librarian, for crying out loud! This is not right!
I remember as a kid I was at the library so much they started putting me to work alphabetizing books! But like you SpyChicken I tend to rack up the fines now!
Actually I currently don't have a library card because I have yet to get my drivers license down here.I need that to get a library card. Maybe I should do that tomorrow.
I'm finishing my masters in library science right now . . . and though we may have thoughts about what you check out - it's actually one of our profession's ethics to NOT judge what you're reading or why, or to discuss it with other staff members . . . ;)
So whatever you read is always safe with us. We only keep track enough to know the types or books you like and to recommend more! :D
