Book eating Monsters
I cannot explain what is happening to our collection. We are missing books daily. When I think of people taking books it makes me cranky. I am depressed. Just stab me again.
As I think of all those lost books feeling lonely missing their shelf-mates, I wonder what really happened to them. I shudder to think of their fates; Balancing a lopsided coffee table, a dog's chew toy, a dust collector under a bed. Oh sad day.
How terrible of a person are you if you feel you have to swipe a book from the library?
That's low.
I have decided that it is in my best interest to shelter my little self from this patrons-keep-taking-our-books depression. So from now on I will begin to believe in Book Eating Monsters. Ahhh. Serenity now, serenity now......

Is the Bible the most stolen book at your library too? It is here.
If we actually had a Bible I'm sure its fate would be like your library's. Actually our patrons' favorite topics are biochemistry and orthopaedics.
