  1. Hi, everyone.
  2. I'm Sarah Williams.
  3. I'm the Children's Library and at the Red Bank Public
  4. Library. And even though the library is closed to the
  5. public right now, we're still working for you.
  6. And I want to give you a little sneak peek
  7. of what goes on behind the scenes every day and
  8. tell you about some of the programs and offerings that
  9. we have for you every day when we come in,
  10. the first thing we do is empty the book.
  11. Drop in there.
  12. We find adult books, Children's books, DVDs and audio books
  13. and guess what?
  14. They have to quarantine.
  15. We have to set them aside for one week before
  16. we're able to handle them safely.
  17. And so that's what we do.
  18. But don't worry.
  19. We're not charging any late fees right now.
  20. Here is Miss Cathy returning the books to their shelves.
  21. Did you know that we have over 15,000 materials at
  22. the library?
  23. That's why it's so important that they make their way
  24. to their proper place on the shelf.
  25. It's a really important job.
  26. Hey, we set up a new kids corner upstairs in
  27. the library so that when we open to the public
  28. you'll be able to access some great new books and
  29. also some really nice popular selections from downstairs in the
  30. Children's room.
  31. We hope to see you at the library really soon.
  32. Guess what?
  33. You can still check out books right now.
  34. All you have to do is go on our website
  35. or give us a call and ask to put a
  36. book on holds.
  37. We'll place it on hold for you will pull it
  38. from the shelf and then we'll call you and schedule
  39. an appointment for you to come pick it up right
  40. off the porch.
  41. It's really simple.
  42. I hope you give it a try.
  43. Don't forget, we have free WiFi at the building, and
  44. that's available outside in our parking lot and in the
  45. backyard. And that reminds me back yard is always there,
  46. and it's a great place for you to hang out.
  47. Look how gorgeous that setting is.
  48. We also continue to offer a lot of great programs
  49. for our patrons, but we're doing it all online, so
  50. we now have a YouTube channel that's the Red Bank
  51. public Library, and we post a lot of videos on
  52. our Facebook page, so follow us and you'll find story,
  53. times, arts and crafts programs, discussion groups and all kinds
  54. of things for kids and adults.

  62. kinds of things.
