The itch to browse the shelves

A. Beckert

With everything that's happened in 2020, and at the time of this writing, my public library network is still at curbside service only.


I wholeheartedly agree with keeping workplaces for public services safe. I'm glad to place holds and pick up for the safety of the awesome people who run the libraries.


I just miss browsing. Typically I know exactly what I want to read, but in those times I don't know what I want, browsing the library sections and shelves is a pleasure. And at this point, I could not browse.


Catalogues can help, that's what I used this time. It just… isn't the same as a title catching your eye from the shelves, or thumbing through the pages to get a taste.


I look forward to when browsing can come back in a safe way.
