Comments from your Library community this month.
◘ "Leah has been just great! My son is 3 years old, and when he was younger he wanted to read the same books over and over so we bought them. But now he wants new books all the time, and Leah has been helping me find them ... We can't wait to come inside the building after you've reopened; we moved here in the spring so we've never even seen the inside of the building. Libraries are awesome!" -paraphrased curbside conversation
◘ In an email to Elliot: "I really appreciate your help and diligence. Please also pass on our thankfulness for the library in this weird time period. You all have innovated and shown great dedication to educating and championing literacy and passion for learning. So impressive and such a blessing! Looking forward to being able to be inside the library someday soon!"
◘ Trivia Night's Zoom chat comments: "This is really fun, thanks"; "So fun and so great."; "LOVE THIS!"; "We've enjoyed both months. Thanks!"
◘ "I have been meaning to email for a while now to let you know how incredible Kirsten Muskat is and what a wonderful experience I have each week with her Tuesday morning mindfulness group. I joined the group in November 2020, and it has positively transformed my daily living and my outlook on life in many ways. Thank you for making this opportunity possible for those of us who have been lucky enough to find this group."
◘ "Thank you! And thank you for providing this service. You have probably noticed my requests popping up quite a bit - you’re making homeschooling possible for my four kids in this crazy time and I really appreciate it!"
◘ "Thank you so very much. So fast, I appreciate all the library does. You all do great work."
◘ "We really appreciate you and The Camas Library. To be sure, the only complaint we have involving the Library is that we can't enjoy the wonderful environment inside that The Camas Library created before the shutdown. We look forward to the day that you are allowed to safely open your doors."
◘ "You are a special community light through darkness - what libraries have always been through time and across the world, in every culture, literally. Levels the playing field too. Kudos."
◘ "I appreciate you guys so much, and I'm so grateful!"
◘ "Thanks so much for all you all are doing to keep things going!"
◘ "I literally don't think I could survive this if I couldn't get things to read from the library." - another curbside conversation
