9:00 - 11:00 a.m. ; 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.

What I'm doing between questions: checking for typos (a quixotic process, at best, but for now I am caught up), collection development....
9:00

• [phone] (they hung up on me when I answered--first question(?) of the day at 9:35)
• "Is breakfast ready?" (one of our regular patrons, making a joke)
• "Are you open tonight?" (only till 5--and if you're leaving, you might want to log out of your internet acct.)
• [phone] (circ person asking how to run overdue notices--which no one working today knows how to do...derrrrr [we figure it out, though])
• Pencil
• Mr. Ick needs an eraser...and also wants to know where to buy them
• [phone] "Can I renew my books?" (sure--why did circ transfer this to me?)
• The book with all the prescriptions in it (PDR, coming right up)

10:00

• Help with using PDR (I go get the Consumer Drug Reference book which is 100% easier to use!)
• (He fills me in on his entire medical history for the past 40 years. He's remarkably upbeat. I could have lived without the comments about his catheters and the parting remark that he's been celibate for 40 years...but what can ya do?)
• Pencil
• [phone] Can I use saved Office 2007 files on your computers? (the public ones, not directly--they have to be saved as [Word, Excel] 97-2003 documents first)
• Pay for prints (nope, only one today: it's free)
• Prescription drug program (who knew? No one, except Librarian D who fills me in)
• Mr. Ick returns eraser
• Are my DVDs here yet? (no)

1:00

• (Is there some reason that people can move a chair across to the room to where they want to shoulder surf behind a friend/family member, but they can't move it back? D'oh)
• Make (unnecessary) change
• Paper
• Summer hours (same as the rest of the year) and the next time we are closed on Sunday (next week for Father's Day, and then not until Labor Day)
• Today's local classified ads
• [phone] Melatonin: spelling and anything we have about it (dude's a crank--I 'found nothing')
• Help with wireless connection
• Update SAM access
• Classified ads are returned
• Someone returns a wallet left at one of the computers
• [phone] Three book reserves
• Pencil
• Concerned wallet owner asks about found one--it's his

I do like summer weekends!!
