The fashionable folks at ModCloth--thanks to their Thanksgiving Thank-a-Thon Blog Contest-- have inspired Lila to identify some things that make her thankful.
1. The first is Thanksgiving Break. Lila is shuttering the library on Thursday and Friday, so don't even think about stopping by. At this point in the semester, we all need a break. Enjoy it! And the library will be open on Saturday (from noon - 4:30pm) and Sunday (from 5 - 11pm), so you'll be able to get back in the swing of things before classes begin.
2. Studious Belmonters. Nothing delights Lila more than hosting a full house of dilligent students. Keep up the good work! Remember if you need quiet space to do that readin' or to get your study on, the lower level (basement) is the place to be.
3. New books and stuff. They just keep coming...it's like TJ Maxx sez: [Bunch Library is] never the same place twice!
4. Unseasonably warm and sunny weather. You may think this is an excuse to avoid the library, but there are so many sunny window spots where you can take it all in AND be productive at the same time!!!
5. More computers. If all of the computers in the reference area are taken you can go into McWhorter and log on. Lila hates turning students away and now that McWhorter is open she doesn't have to (unless they want color or free printing...)!
6. Sensible shoes. Lila hates to perpetuate fuddy-duddy librarian stereotypes, but with so many leaves concealing so many cracks/holes/pits one has to take precautions.
What are you thankful for? Post-fall-break extended library hours? More soft chairs? Noiseless nooks and cozy crannies? Let Lila know!
