Brackets, Filling out

Entertain yourself at work by making tournament brackets in which you pit your library coworkers against one another in fictional battles of competitive nerd-dom (book cart races), physical strength (librarian death matches), and/or interpersonal communication (maintaining eye contact during conversations).

Don't forget the "rolling-of-the-eyes-behind-the-patron's-back" competition. Extra points for making your colleague snort through the nose in front of said patron.

What about the contest for "cat photo collection"? Which coworker can decorate their desk area/office with the most pictures of their pet that died three years ago?

Also include the "who can put back the most chairs that patrons leave wherever they want to" competition.

If you get tired of ranking librarians, you can rank fantasy characters!
