Had a *great* reference question today:

"Who wrote Dante's Inferno?"

I want you to know that I was very professional. I did *not* laugh out loud. I didn't even smirk. - oh, silently and with absolutely no outward evidence of it, I laughed riotously in my mind. But for the patron I calmly said it was Dante (I didn't even put any funny emphasis on the name) and took him to where it was on the shelf.

Some days it's funny being a librarian.

Been a while again

I have been extremely busy - much going on. Gearing up for Midwinter meeting in Seattle, plus holiday programs, concerts, rehearsals and just for giggles some really wild weather. I am beat! When did I get so old?! (this pic is from the snow storm a few weeks ago - these trees are not designed to cope with that weight. Many branches and limbs came down and what the snow didn't knock down, the wind storms that followed took down)
