Stevenson Community Library

Today I had the opportunity to help out at another branch in my library system. The Stevenson Community Library is nestled in the Columbia River Gorge and circulated ~53k items/year.

They've been a bit short-staffed all summer and many of my library colleagues have taken a day at the branch. Today was my turn and I loved it!

I spent the entire day on desk and was able to personally engage with everyone who came into the branch. My favorite visitors were children visiting with their grandparents. I was able to engage in a lively discussion with several shy preteens who were forced to speak with me by their grandma. :D

 This branch recently had a remodel to add new decking and furniture.

 It has an amazing view of the Columbia River! During my afternoon break, I got to watch windsurfers enjoying the fine weather.
