One year later...

It is nearly one year later and I think i may try this blog business again. In half an hour 15 or so 2 year olds will descend upon the ABC carpet next to the circulation desk in time for Story Hour. Kind of a misnomer because how many two-year olds will sit still for an hour? Its more like Story Half Hour. Or Story Twenty Minutes At Best. And we move around alot. Dancing to Baby Beluga and Down by The Bay are always the highlights and i have some pretty wild dancers and sometimes screamers. Oops. They've already started arriving... Better go.

Greetings

As a fiddler, singersongwriter, and director of a small, rural library in northern Vermont "alt country librarian" seemed to say it all. This will mostly be a blog about life as a small town librarian, with the occasional musical note thrown in.

As I write, 4 inches of snow have fallen and lots more to come. A family of three braved the snow-packed roads to come to the library this morning. Two tall piles of books are teetering on the circulation desk, awaiting check out, and our on-line catalog is down. So its back to the slow but solid, old-fashioned method of pulling cards.
