Gift Idea: Hey, it's getting a little late, but if you head over to the Weld County Images Collection (hosted by yours truly), you can find some great pics from Greeley History. Weird stuff, old-timey stuff, and more than one pic of a potato! cdm16720.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/coll...

Give the gift of making a Book a Librarian appointment for yourself before friends and family come in from out of town.
I help family with tech and don't mind it, but it's nice to spend time together on the holidays without a tech project to get done.

It is my professional duty to inform you that there is a book called Godzilla's Monsterpiece Theatre on Hoopla that includes a moment when Jay Gatsby turns into a monster to fight Godzilla, and someone drops the line, "He has truly become...The Great Gatsby." www.hoopladigital.com/comic/godzil...

Our buddies at CSU Extension have created a new resource, Senior Access Points, a website full of information and resources for seniors and their caregivers, and the best part is that it's specific to Weld County! Head over to www.weld.gov/Government/D... and take a look.
Senior Access Points
Senior Access Points connects older adults with reliable resources in Weld County and makes those resources more accessible to all.

It's true, librarians had their own handwritten font about 100 years before the genius of Comic Sans was revealed.

Those of you who follow us online may have seen that we used the last week of holiday closure announcements to troll our staff member/Cowboys fan, Doug, because we were pretty sure the Cowboys wouldn't be winning on Thursday last week. Well, it takes a big person to admit they were wrong.
