Another crazy-busy day on the children's desk. School starts this week so lots of kids were coming in with their reading lists (which is why we had so many historical fiction requests.) I was pleased to see that a couple of my middle ages books were on the kids' lists (though both kids with those lists opted for the WWII books instead)
Some of the books I found for people:
Cardcaptor
Magic School bus videos
dinosaurs books
Auto repair manual (sent them to adults)
Yu Gi Oh
Pokemon
Time of Wonder
Thesaurus
Bridge to Teribithia

printing issue from Yahoo Mail
and one of the pages asked me how many pages were in a ream -- turns out there are between 480-516 (20 quires of 24-25 each). Common usage is 500 pages, but I thought that it was interesting that its kind of a vague count historically.
Pretty steady for the whole 6 hours -- lots of repeat requests for graphic novels and anime videos, plus the standard paper back series.
I have to say I'm exhausted after all that. Time for dinner and the Olympics and early to bed.
