Ask Us Anytime

11/16/2020

 
By Carol Van Why, Library Committee Co-Chair
Originally published in the November 2020 issue of the 1666 Coffman Newsletter

One of the hot titles in our library lately is Bill Bryson’s The Body: A Guide for Occupants. A resident discovering Bill Bryson for the first time while reading that book asked whether there were other Bryson books in the library.

​My personal Bryson favorite is the laugh-out-loud-funny book, A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America. Turns out four of his books were available, and I was able to direct the resident to their locations.

In another situation a resident saw an article about an award-winning author in the Star Tribune. This author is not yet a household name, but we were able to find a copy in the library and delivered it to the resident.

Hope you know that anytime you’re wondering if something is in the library, you’re welcome to call one of the Library’s cochairs (Katie Weiblen during the winter months). We’ve both been here long enough to have a good idea what’s in the Library. If we’re not sure, we’ll comb the shelves for you. We’re also happy to sign a book out for you and deliver it.
