A "PhoneLess" Day

Well, this has been an interesting day at Mustang since we have had no incoming or outgoing phone capabilities all day (since 9:30 this morning.) So this post is about when technology fails! Luckily a staff member's personal cell phone enabled me to report the problem to IS and then call later in the day to check the status. Here we are at 4:30 and still no phones. I imagine there are lots of library patrons a little frustrated with us today. We can only hope they called back in and tried one of the other library choices from the 312-READ line. The lack of phones ringing sure makes for a quiet atmosphere although the walk-in traffic has been heavy for a Monday--maybe some of the people who didn't want to brave the rain over the weekend. At this time in my life I do not have a cell phone (I am such a luddite!) so many thanks to Joan, Chris and Nancy for the loan of their phones. We also started having alarm problems at 4:00. Such fun!
