Library display

The new librarian thought it would be nice to take one of the display cabinets and move up by the front desk.  The one up front I put Christmas/Winter dishes in.  The village's official Christmas celebration is this weekend.  There will be a lot of people coming in and out that day and I wanted to be sure to have the display ready.  I walked in this morning to just put some finishing touches on it.  I saw that Diane, the librarian, had no volunteers today.  Told her I would man the front desk while she took some time for lunch/errands/etc.  She asked if I would mind updating the volunteer list (e.g. retyping it) and if the volunteers knew they should shut off the Christmas lights on the tree as part of the closing procedures.  I said I would retype closing procedures also.  She also said she'd like to know how many people come in each month.  Not a problem, I just had to pull up the attendance graph.  Between those tasks, watching the desk, and finishing the display cabinets I didn't get out of there until 3:30.  Not exactly how I expected to spend the afternoon but outside there was a bitter wind blowing snow around.  Wasn't planning on a long walk thru the swamps anyway.
