A patron was up at the front desk of my library, talking to my
co-worker, and I heard her saying she didn't want to do something if it
caused any bother for the library. Of course my co-worker assured her it
wasn't a problem, whatever she may have actually felt in her heart of
hearts about it.
And it wasn't a problem, no matter what the
issue was. Because I am here to tell you that, in my experience, if you
don't want to cause the library any bother, whatever you're asking for
isn't a bother. It's the people who evince not the slightest suspicion
that they might be causing an undue inconvenience on the library and
those of us who work there who might be causing an unreasonable problem.

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
