10 am when, the doors were pubilcly opened, for the first time, about a dozen customers where waiting in the parking lot. The staff was all excited wondering about serving brand new customers. The end of the day saw 914 circ way above a typical soft opening, so customers were able to find something to check out . Now, you may be wondering what a soft opening is? That is when the building is mostly complete, but un expected delays caused delay for some display shelving and some tables. The books though are all in the proper neighborhood, not in any particular order, and the finished signage is not ready yet, hence the temp signs. When the adults, teens and children came in they were told, that they library was still a work in progress, when warned about the disaray of the collection the reply was typically, I am just browsing. Customers love the DVDs being divided into catgories like action and drama “it’s just like Blockbuster” was one comment.
Shhhh It opened softly on Monday 6/11
