[ILL-L] A Friday "silly" question

[Hocking, Kim]

At my old library, we had a deer run straight through a glass wall one Saturday afternoon. Luckily, the librarian on duty was cool-headed, and she and security were able to get it out without much more damage to the building or the animal.

Andrea's "fun" question reminded me of a silly question: What animals have come into your ILL department?

In talking with colleagues a few weeking ago, I remembered:

a snake - around someone's wrist
a bird - flew in (happened at two libraries)
dogs - came in through the Library's electric doors
cats - loved the office's southwest corner windows for napping, and the office was on the second floor
a ferret - in someone's carry bag


I hope everyone has a fine Thanksgiving week and to non-US folks, a great weekend.
