New pics from the Kids Library! Every time we visit there's so much progress! Grand opening June 8th! Right around the corner!
Is it just your imagination or is the library really busy these days?
It's not your imagination. Visits and circulation are way up. 2024 is starting out strong with a 16% increase in visitors and 8% increase in circulation! Digital collection use is also increasing, as is use of our public computers and wireless services. Program attendance is up 14%, which is quite significant after a record breaking 2023. Even our subscription database sessions, a service that has lost popularity over the years, went up 29% in February. Wow! Thanks to everyone who is working so hard. The community likes what you're doing!
Bright Spots this week:
From Karen:
"Thank you Alex for all your help last week with printing and copying. You are awesome!!
Thank you Elliott for taking time out of your day to create a pencil topper pattern in Canva for the Kung Fu Panda program. The pattern can be used for future programs. Yeah, Elliott!! "
From DJ:
"I'd like to give Alex S a bright spot.
While Gina was out I was working on ILLs and ended up dropping a 4 compartment CD case (not that I don't handle ILLs with care, I'm just a little clumsy sometimes--that part is for Gina in case she is reading). I thought this rare--some might even say exotic--CD case was broken and unfixable. Alex immediately ran to the back with his cape billowing behind him and found a backup of the exact case and pieced everything together, keeping all the owning library's tags and markings in place!
The superhero allusion might have been slightly dramatic, but I'm very grateful to have helpful coworkers like Alex. Thank you Alex!"
