Booktrucks, Loving your

Book trucks are a hot commodity in libraries. Protect them. Label them for your department so that they don't wander. Send out accusatory mass emails when they go missing. Decorate them. Rotate their tires every 7,000 miles. But please, please, please, please, please.... spare us all and don't dance with them.

Thriller didn't scare me, even though I was 5 when it came out. But that scares me even now. WTF?

yeah, don't dance, becasue I really hate it when people have a sense of humor about the most mundane parts of their jobs, and are willing to look ridiculous and have fun being silly together..

Hurray to breaking down the "shushing" Librarian stereotype that we must live with.
Hurray!

When is it time to let your booktruck go? When the welds break? When the wheels fall off? When it buckles under its own weight?

We are wondering when our booktrucks need to sign a DNR.

Too late.
Damn.

Wow, you call that an example about breaking down the "librarian" stereotype? You must think overriding a hold on a book to renew it for a "hot" patron is a felony.
