I also worked there for so long that the collection felt like it was literally mine! And, actually, a bunch of them were my books that I donated. It was sad leaving behind all those books.

When you say "My Library" do you mean that in the sense that it was the library you worked at before you moved OR do you mean it more like you owned that library? Either way, its horrific, I totally hope the books weren't all destroyed and it will be able to reopen soon. I know you will help stock it with some incredible books. You've really steered me into some fantastic reads I would have missed otherwise.<br /><br />Thinking of you and yours especially missing your blog posts. Hope all gets better soon.Gina @ My Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895568426820464572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-72513362033475603882012-11-16T14:27:40.150-05:002012-11-16T14:27:40.150-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Gina @ My Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895568426820464572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-39759987323362845242012-11-16T13:23:21.801-05:002012-11-16T13:23:21.801-05:00It's going to be a long time I fear before we&...It's going to be a long time I fear before we've all recuperated.

There is nothing set up yet for book donations since they're still sorting through everything, but I will for sure let you know when I know more. I'm sure donations would be very welcome. <br /><br />I'm just so touched by these comments. I hope you don't mind that I pass them along to my patrons and co-workers.
