When's the Last Time You Received a Check from Antarctica?

Goose Creek Library Staff were surprised to find a check for overdue
fines in the amount of .80 cents from a patron who spends part of the
year at McMurdo Station in Antarctica!
Staff were so tickled, they made up this poem and sent him a musical
greeting card.
Well, it appears that his roommate wasn't as tickled by the music as he
was:)

Librarians are Cute?

One of our librarians had a girl tell her that her boyfriend's friend
thought she was so cute that he came in again to get a library card :-[

Plum Spooky hit library shelves January 6th

Plum Spooky Janet Evanovich

Turn on all the lights and check under your bed. Things are about to get
spooky in Trenton, New Jersey.

According to legend, the Jersey Devil prowls the Pine Barrens and soars
above the treetops in the dark of night. As eerie as this might seem,
there are things in the Barrens that are even more frightening and
dangerous. And there are monkeys. Lots of monkeys.

Wulf Grimoire is a world wanderer and an opportunist who can kill
without remorse and disappear like smoke. He's chosen Martin Munch, boy
genius, as his new business partner, and he's chosen the Barrens as his
new playground

Munch received his doctorate degree in quantum physics when he was
twenty-two. He's now twenty-four, and while his brain is large, his body
hasn't made it out of the boys' department at Macy's. Anyone who says
good things come in small packages hasn't met Munch. Wulf Grimoire is
looking for world domination. Martin Munch would be happy if he could
just get a woman naked and tied to a tree.

Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum has Munch on her most-wanted list for
failure to appear in court. Plum is the all-American girl stuck in an
uncomfortable job, succeeding on luck and tenacity. Usually she gets her
man. This time she gets a monkey. She also gets a big guy named Diesel.

Diesel pops in and out of Plum's life like birthday cake - delicious to
look at and taste, not especially healthy as a steady diet, gone by the
end of the week if not sooner. He's an uber bounty hunter with special
skills when it comes to tracking men and pleasing women. He's after
Grimoire, and now he's also after Munch. And if truth were told, he
wouldn't mind setting Stephanie Plum in his crosshairs.

Diesel and Plum hunt down Munch and Grimoire, following them into the
Barrens, surviving cranberry bogs, the Jersey Devil, a hair-raising
experience, sand in their underwear, and, of course . . . monkeys.
