So for about a day I was under the impression that the Charlottesville area library was a) A corporate sellout (giftshop!?) b) Very classy (pools...) c) A place I'd like to visit (what do they sell in the giftshop? I love book tchotchkes! Little glass novels? Funny buttons about reading? Dorky T-shirts?) The unmarked door thing didn't seem odd to me though.

We will start by reading children's books to the homeless men at the downtown branch until they spit on us. Then we will tear pages from Cosmo. Then you will truly know the wonders of the public library. The BBF doesn't use the library either, and it drives me crazy. I will start borrowing inappropriate books for you guys. The library will win you over eventually. It always does. This sounds like fun. We will start by reading children’s books to the homeless men at the downtown branch until they spit on us.

I need to begin to be a library person. Help. I want to love it. I really do. Can we have a library date and you can show me the inner workings of the grown up section? Not a come on! I only know the children's section, because that is the last time I had a library card. Please, help. Ummmmmmm. I need to begin to be a library person. Help. I want to love it. I really do.

Like you suggest, I eventually found the "missing" books on the shelf and showed them to the head librarian. She refunded my $90 and the library and I were friends again. But I will never be friends with the guy on the Downtown branch mezzanine who checks people into the public computers. He is just plain mean. Ms. Crabstick,

I can't tell you how many times I've returned a book and it still shows up on my record. If you can remember which branch you returned your book to, you can probably find it on the shelf. I've found several of my "missing" books this way. The library? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve returned a book and it still shows up on my record.
