Today was the first open day and seeing people coming into the library after a quiet week was interesting. We finished the display boards and sorted out the DVD case to prepare for the visitors. Whilst Geoff and other members of staff gave tours, we were busy processing books and endlessly stamping; this was great as we were never bored and always had a task. After this, we checked if e-books were available using reading lists and iDiscover. We have previously done this so we were basically experts ;).
Once lunch was over, we went around the library to find long-lost books. It was a challenging task as the books could have been hiding anywhere! However, it was a really rewarding experience whenever we found one. In the end we found around 10 books which was thrilling!
At the end of the day, we got a book from the Sidgbox box that came from the University library, we ran out of time so we didn’t get to go visit the UL but we are going there tomorrow which is exciting!
