Depends on the library and the type of book. Typical time frames are 10 years, 7 years, 5 years, or 2 years. For example I work in an busy urban library in the children’s room and we were running out of space in our fiction novel section so we did a 5 year then a 2 year when the first one didn’t make enough space. Our biography section grows less quickly so we do 7 year weeds.
It does! We gotta clear space on the shelves sometimes for new books :)
I love the icons in settings! I’m hella dyslexic and seeing the individual settings in the long lists of words can be super hard but the icons give me really easy and intuitive touch points that I can scan for instead. Y’all are amazing!
We Found a Hat! One of my favorite picturebooks.

Thank you for your perspective!
Definitely a reasonable critique but honestly I don’t plan to ever release it to the public, it’s really just for me.

The city I work in prohibits the selling or giving away of city property so we aren’t allowed to sell them (and truly most of the time they are so old and crusty and yucky that no one would pay any amount of money for them), but if the quality of books is super high we sneakily donate them to More Than Words. That being said we do hold book sales stocked by donations from patrons and the proceeds go into our programming budget.
