Let's not get crafty
So I was checking in books from the drop one day, checking for damage. And I came across the Fifty Shades of Grey audiobook... I thought to myself, "this is a weird texture. Wait where's the plastic?!" Then I realized The plastic audiobook cover was ripped off and the patron had MOD PODGED the cover to the case!

Take a Study Break and Color Our Collections!
Earlier in the year #colorourcollections swept through the museum and library social media scenes. Though we are a little late, we thought we’d capitalize on that great idea and provide an event to help our hardworking students de-stress a little right before finals. The images are taken from items from our rare books and manuscripts & archives collections. Take a study break, HDS-ers!
Can’t join us in person? You can download our “coloring book” from this page. (If you want to share your work–please post and tag us!)
Um...No
A patron today asked if she could highlight in the library book...
Long before vampires sparkled or hunger was a game, author Lois Duncan was writing tense, scary stories for teenagers. Books like Down a Dark Hall and Stranger With My Face kept a generation of readers up at night.
“You have girls switching bodies with each other, and you have girls at a boarding school being possessed by long-dead artists,“ says publisher Lizzie Skurnick. "It’s these dramatic situations, but the writing is as good as any literary fiction today.”
Duncan died suddenly on Wednesday at her home in Florida. She was 82.

Recommendations, Book
I was shelving some books when a six-year-old girl came up to me and asked:
“Do you have any books about how to make boys cry?“
