National Library Workers' Day
Today is National Library Workers' Day. There's no parade, no special greeting card, no presidential proclamation. But--we don't really care about that. Library workers do what they do because they love the library and what it entails. The thrill of the hunt for information, the satisfaction of introducing the customer to just the right resource, the joy of hearing satisfied buzz as a group leaves a library program. That's what it's about.
The Cedar Falls Public Library staff, consisting of 19.39 dedicated FTEs, circulated 289,605 items last year. We facilitated 237,211 patron visits, and answered 26,300 reference inquiries. We deal in statistics, but our real measure of success is your return visit. Most of us probably feel pretty uncomfortable giving ourselves a pat on the back--but today, let's make an exception.
We hope you feel welcome at the CFPL--stop in often!
