Tuesday (with new glasses)

What I'm doing between questions: killing people off in the catalog, and also merging several children's orders into one giant order.

1:00 in the children's room

• [phone] Help downloading ebooks to Kindle [I transfer to the ref desk and go back to updating death dates]
• "I have to go POTTTEEEEE" [I get the key out for the mom and point her toward the bathroom]
• Key is back, and mom wants help with easy chapter books
• Meanwhile her daughter has lost her mom, so I wave her toward where I last saw mom and start to get up when I see mom moving to intercept her
• And in walks the director...checking the temperature in the play area

2:00 in the children's room

• [phone] Register for Microsoft Word class [this brings the wait list up to 7]
• ...school's out: people are starting to wander in with older kids
• Recycling bin? [yup]

7:00 in the children's room

• Thirteen by Lauren Myracle [we don't own, and she needs it tomorrow, so she heads off to find something else by her]
• [phone] Librarian B asking me to check her m-i-l's card to be sure she (B) doesn't download the same Kindle books she has checked out
• Books on Switzerland [we have none in here...fail]
