I have library books at home that I checked out in February. The due dates have all been moved to September 30. We’ve been asked to start returning some, but please don’t overwhelm the librarians.
This is great! I’ll be able to return them before I misplace them.
Here’s the problem: of the 27 branches of the library, only two are open for returns. Neither are easy to get to right now. Hmm.
I went online to find out if they are moving the due dates again. No. They are not. You can text the library when the chat feature is open, between 10&5 m-f. So I did. I mentioned that I can easily get to three branches, and I’m not able to get to the two that are open. Would one of these three branches be open for returns any time soon?
No. No more branches will open until mid October. Because the libraries are fine free, I don’t have to return them by their extended due date.
Not fair. I am working on spring cleaning and was hoping to get these back to their homes soon. At least I know that the library system is thinking of opening the rest of the branches, eventually. I still miss the library.
