The Non-Fiction Is Back!

A few weeks ago, we went into the library and while chatting with one of our favorite librarians I sorrowfully noted the lack of non-fiction in our stacks and she excitedly said, “they’re coming back downstairs!” I couldn’t believe it.

After we filled out the survey — nothing happened. I didn’t see it mentioned in the library newsletter or on their blog(s) so I thought maybe nothing would change and I has pretty much resolved to mourn non-fiction for the next two years.

But no — overwhelming support for bringing the non-fiction back. I didn’t blog about it because I didn’t want to jinx it. We were so darn excited early in the week when we ran in to pick up some holds and there was the non-fiction! So excited that I think we checked out 10 non-fiction just because we were so thrilled. (The travel guides didn’t make the move back downstairs — that’s disappointing since I’m a spur of the moment travel guide browser but that’s ok. Who has time to travel right now or even dream about travel right now, anyway. No big deal.)

Thank you Glenview Public Library for asking for patron feedback and then taking action on that feedback. Yippee! Long live non-fiction!
