One of my favorite library experiences, as both a librarian and a patron, is admiring and perusing the new books that come in to the library.
I get excited when books that I’ve ordered arrive at my desk for processing...there’s just something about that new book smell!
As a children’s librarian in the Children’s Room at the Main Library it made me so happy to watch families search the latest books for the perfect read.
