Tip of the Day 6/13/11

Summertime and reading go hand-in-hand.  How do you stop the frustration of lost and overdue Library books and DVD's?  Place a bag or basket by the door you use to enter and exit the house.  All items stay in the container unless being read or watched and only one item per person can be removed from the basket at a time.  As soon as the book is read or DVD is watched, return it to the basket.  Keep a printout of the items with the due date and a pencil in the basket, when the item is removed initial the item, mark it off when returned.  This will help in the search if the item is missing .
