Happy National Library Week

"It's still National Library Week. You should be especially nice to a librarian today, or tomorrow. Sometime this week, anyway. Probably the librarians would like tea. Or chocolates. Or a reliable source of funding."- Neil Gaiman

Oooh, yes! Funding!

[checkers65477]

Funding would be nice! Chocolates, too.

That made me think that what would be nice would be a bag of gold coins; half of them real, half of them a particularly luscious chocolate wrapped in gold coin shaped foil.

Um.

*guiltily sends internet-funding and internet-chocolate through the ether*

Guilty because ignorant. Sorry! :)

Hey, how could you know? There's a brand new library branch here in NC--they built this cool new building and it was open for 6 weeks then they decided they couldn't afford to keep it open any longer. Such a shame. Money is so tight everywhere.

Pssh, redundant. Librarians deserve chocolate and tea and funding every* day.

* Maybe not weekends.

[checkers65477]

Chocolate and wine on weekends. :)

^_^ *offers virtual chocolate and tea*

Yesterday was also (inter?)national hug day!

*HUGS* A couple of days late, but oh well.

A reliable source of funding would be nice, especially with all the great YA books coming out. Spring is bad enough, but I dread Fall, with its huge release schedule.

I love how Gaiman is so supportive of libraries. But though I like tea, I think I would prefer beer. Yeah, beer would be better. (c:

Huh, funny thing, that. I'm drinking one right now!

I suppose I'd be willing to buy my own beer as long as the funding allows me to buy books for the library.
