Legacy, Leaving a

Decorate the librarian-side of your reference desk with hand-scrawled sticky notes, outdated scraps of paper, and dog-eared policy documents of unknown origin. Your contribution of an unlabeled call number on a Post-it will most likely outlast your career.

For extra fun, discreetly post the URL for this post somewhere on your library's reference desk (dated on the back), and see how long it lasts there.

Brilliant! I've got a dated Post-it note with the URL all ready to go... just waiting for my turn at the desk. Thanks for giving me something to live for.

I tried this with an obscure reference to a pipeline safety federal code on the visitor side of my desk...it's gone already. Kind of sad, really.
