I'm the Adult Services Coordinator.
How long have you been on the library staff?
Five years.
What is the most frequent question you are asked at the library?
Most recently, it has been, “Where are the DVD’s?” We have been moving materials around to make better use of space and to more logically organize the library – you should come check it out.
