Saw this on facebook last week, and it cracked me up.
Why?
- Because I’ve certainly had my fair share of overdue books, and
- Because those overdue books have caused me such terrible anxiety and shame that I avoided the public library for a season.
So, the fact that librarians may or may not have a problem with overdue library books gives me great relief, great joy, and a bit of a chuckle.
p.s.
I’m okay now. I’ve paid my fines and (mostly) recovered from the humiliation. Though, I do do most of my public library patronage via Overdrive these days.
