This was the sign one of my staff hastily wrote during the frantic last day my library was open to the public (which ironically, I suspect was one of the busiest circulation days in my branch’s history as people took *armloads* of books – perhaps realising our project of “at least a couple weeks” was a bit optimistic!)
Now, nearly four months later, my branch is once again open. I didn’t think to put up a “Welcome Back!” sign today (“We Are Opening!”) but it was rewarding to have some many regulars come in, tell us how much they missed us, and even take pictures in front of the library to celebrate such a momentous occasion!
