Got any books?

From Mr. TGS in Canada:

Child: "Are there any books here?"
Me: "I don't know... I think there are..."
Child: "Any GOOD books?"
Me: "Oh no, we don't keep those here."

^ Moments like those make me love my job.

Farting @ the library.

From Miss L. in Canada:

Back in my library school days I did a 2 week work placement in an elementary school library. During a storytime with the kindergarteners one afternoon, a boy in the middle of the group let an adult-male sized fart rip. There was a moment of dead silence, then the boy next to him stuck out his arm and pointed in his face and exclaimed, "Say excuse me!!!!" The culprit turned bright red and bowed his head in shame. I nearly died trying not to laugh. That was the best moment of the entire work placement.

Puberty @ the library.

A short one, but a sweet one, submitted by a public library staff member in the United States:

A 4th Grade boy comes in and very matter of factly tells a co-worker and I "You're going to be seeing me with some zits. I'm starting the puberty!" And I kept a straight face all the way back to my desk! I LOVE my job.
