May day...Well, in Cappy Dick's world of the sea, May day is what you call out when the ship is sinking, but it looks to me, what with all your hard work, this branch is ship shape, and since May Day is also international worker's day, consider yourself celebrated on Tuesday, and I extend a big thanks for all you are doing to keep us afloat!
Ok, here's the weeks updates: For the month of May we have a new display on Gardening, so please add any gardening books that are returned to the display and of course look there if you are seeking gardening books for the pulls list. Also handily, this week the subject for the story hour is also gardening so another place to seek J gardening books might be at my desk. I have put some of them on the display as well, facing the children's area. And if all else fails, you can always ask me.
Out with the old/in with the new: The "new book" pull date for May is 11, so please remove any pre-11 stickers from the book spines and shelve them as per usual. I have noticed a number of New books with stickers interfiled with our regular books so do be sure and check the spines when you are shelving and if they really are new titles put them on our new book display.
Most importantly, we are finding a lot of books that are supposed to be going to other branches on our shelves, and much as I would like to plump up our collection with some new titles, this really isn't the best way, so I am asking that when you are shelving, you please open the book and look at the branch designation penciled in the upper left hand corner to make sure it really is a Capitola book. There may be some large print copies with numbers instead of a branch, so if you get these, just run them through check-in to be sure they do belong in our branch, and shelve them as usual.
And that's all for this week. Thanks again for all your labors.
Cappy Dick
