On the extremely important issue of having and circulating pop-up books: Many of them are fabulous additions to the collection, both for story times and for circulation, as long as you accept the fact that they will eventually bite the dust. But you could buy TWO copies and use one for in-house (displays, storytimes, white gloves only). I really think we're being too anal about buying only things that will "last". What shape are your Captain Underpants or Harry Potter or Goosebumps books in?? Does that stop you from buying them? GO ahead, you know you loved pop-ups when you were a kid, buy the book!

My question is, what are other libraries doing with it? Do I circ. it? Do I put it in reference? Do I hold it at the desk and ask for a blood sample before someone can touch it? (only joking, really!) It is a beautiful book. I know the kids will love it. I would just hate to see it damaged. I could really use some feedback on this. Thanks so much, Bonnie Jecmenek Bastrop Public Library
