So, I only picked up the holds… but, man, it was a HUGE pile. 🙂 I apologized to the librarian, and she said, “Don’t worry. It’s my pleasure.” I wondered what she thought when she actually saw the pile.

I can tell you that the librarian was truly happy to see your large pile. Circulation numbers factor largely in funding and other considerations. We librarians love large piles!
I’ve been meaning to try the Study series. They sound good but I just haven’t gotten around to them…like the rest of my TBR pile. Hope M likes them.

I mentioned this in my vlog, but it took me a good three minutes to sort through all of my holds and figure out how to get them to the counter. The whole time, the security guard was just watching me and smirking!! lol At least you’ve got a whole family you’re getting books for: I got over twenty just for me!
