It just seems so counterproductive to me, somehow.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-10734201066096501792007-11-07T20:21:00.000-06:002007-11-07T20:21:00.000-06:00hi there sam. been a-lurking on your blog for a bi...hi there sam. been a-lurking on your blog for a bit now ... the coffee culture has invaded our libraries! ha! i actually like the idea, but for highschools i think this a little too much!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15900257003116891460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-79351166078431410802007-11-04T07:55:00.000-06:002007-11-04T07:55:00.000-06:00Carrie, I just don't understand the connection, I ...Carrie, I just don't understand the connection, I guess. I like the smell of coffee but I think it would be irritating in a library setting...and all the extra noise involved just doesn't make it a good trade off for me. Library patrons can already be rude enough with their noise level without giving them the perfect excuse to be even louder and more disruptive. :-)Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-26400875560690360112007-11-04T07:53:00.000-06:002007-11-04T07:53:00.000-06:00I've become a spam magnet of late, Sylvia.

That's OK for a retail setting but I don't understand the reason that real libraries decide to take that approach. Regular patrons will likely not be very happy with that choice...for long.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-63359004980190239912007-11-02T16:46:00.000-05:002007-11-02T16:46:00.000-05:00I drink Fair Trade coffee.

It's hard to believe it could get any louder. <BR/><BR/>How I would have LOVED to have a coffee bar in my HS library!

Fortunately, I'll be gone by then. It's so frustrating when a small library (and this one is really small) becomes a social center!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.com
