It's Saturday night and I'm getting packed up with my equipment to go on a paranormal investigation. Tonight we have invited a few new faces from a local radio as well as a couple of old faces who are going to help us in the future. I hope it's a good night but there's always a chance that the dead don't want to chat. 

My boy and I joined the local library this weekend. Fifteen years ago I was a member of it before. Then you could borrow 3 books at once. Ten years ago I joined my step kids to the local library and you could borrow 7books at a time. Yesterday it was explained to me that each person could borrow 25 books in one go. Crazy!
I noticed a modernisation had taken place and it looked cleaner and had now incorporated computers. The biggest change of all though was that there was no one stamping the books. I had to take my library card and scan the bar code and then enter my personal pin number which I typed on a touch screen. The best part was that there was a large hole which was illuminated by a purple light. It looked the size of a microwave without a door. All you had to do was throw a pile of books in, as messily as you liked. Somehow the computer listed all the books at once, put the titles and authors up on the screen and put a green tick next to them in about two seconds. Then you had the option of printing out a receipt. 
I was amazed at the futuristic workings of the library the days. The librarian said that the public library should be at the forefront of technology.
