Prom season. Prom season drives me absolutely stark, ravin' Looney tunes. Web 
searches for prom dresses, print outs of hair styles... although the Duct Tape prom 
site almost makes it all worthwhile:

You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in 
silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals 
as librarians.

Since I work in a high school, I think the frustrations may be a little different, 
but here's the one that gets to me. Almost on a daily basis someone will come up 
and ask me to help them find a book. "The computer says it's in, but I can't find 
it," they say. Books not being where they belong is a great aggravation. Kids will 
pick up a book to look at it and just stick it back anywhere.
