library news: oh! the new bookpage is here! the new bookpage is here!
pick up your copy of March’s bookpage at the ‘brary today! you book nerds.

joshilyn jackson has a new one coming out. as soon as we get it i’ll let you know, kelly and laura. hee.

library story:
(i hope i haven’t already told this one.) my pal, jan, and i are working the circ. desk. this patron comes up and asks how many books you can check out per card. i say, “the limit is ten.”

she says excitedly, “oh! so he can check out as many as he wants!”

i pause and specifically i DO NOT look at jan. for i know if i even barely turn my head in jan’s direction i will lose it, she will lose it, or both of us will lose it.

jan breaks in, “no, not exactly. if he wants ten books or less, then yes, he can check out as many as he wants.”

i don’t even think the lady paid any attention. she went off into the stacks with a happy yet vacant haze about her.
