Kyle Leclaire Tonight was a sad, lonely evening. It was my last night working here until fall, and I must admit that I shed a tear or two. I would like to thank everyone for making my experience this year a fun and memorable one. You will all be dearly missed (until fall at which point I'll be returning and there will no longer be a need to miss any of you). I hope that you all find the courage and the strength to carry on without me.

Ta Ta!

Oh, and just in case anyone was wondering, nothing of note happened this evening. Same old, same old.

Peace out,

Kyle LeClaire

Otherwise there really were not too many questions besides a large amount of people checking out reserve items. Dan and I each took an hour to go shelve on the 2nd floor and then finished up the evening with a room pickup.

]]> The shift was very slow. Room pick ups were performed twice. I checked all of the leaks and one was still dripping and hitting the edge of the trash can in the back corner. I re-positioned it and cleaned up excess water on the floor. Other than that the shift went very smooth.

It seemed that many of our patrons were not aware of the journals catalog to search their specified journal. Aaron and I completed a thorough room clean up at the end and I noticed that most of the leaks had actually stopped leaking.
