A child falls into the deep catacombs of the building. A sparrow is loose in the stacks. The individual who always stays until closing has been building a tunnel from the bathrooms to his home. All these occurrences and more are logged here. Although the librarian forgets to write the date, it doesn't matter. Rest assured these incidents are happening all the time, in your local library and the library at the furthest reaches of your consciousness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Formatted\"\u003eI'm a writer and librarian living in Philadelphia with loved ones and a Netflix DVD plan.
