A
Welcome
to
the
wpl
book
drop
podcast,
I'm
your
host,
becky
miller,
circulation
and
marketing
assistant
at
waterloo,
public
library,
I
believe
all
mammals
are
cute,
even
raccoons,
bats
and
opossums.
I
also
think
there
is
nothing
better
than
having
an
animal
to
live
with,
though
I
only
have
a
cat
and
a
dog
at
this
time.
No
wild
animals
joining
us
today
is
mike
herman.
He
is
the
friends
of
the
waterloo,
public
library
president
mike
is
a
disney
world
enthusiast.
A
He
has
been
there
dozens
of
times
and
when
he
walks
through
the
gate,
mickey
greets
him
by
name
mike
and
his
wife
have
been
officially
recognized
as
waterloo
lost,
island,
water,
park's,
most
frequent
and
loyal
guests,
and
mike
also
cautions
me
that
he
likes
to
tell
it
as
he
sees
it.
So
you've
been
warned
thanks
for
joining
us
mike
okay.
So
can
we
talk
about
disney
world
for
a
second?
You
bet.
B
Judy
and
I
went
down
there
early
70s
with
a
field
trip
with
the
company
I
was
working
for
and
we
had
a
daughter
and
we
took
our
daughter
when
she
was
one
and
my
brother
he's
was
a
very
enthusiastic
disney
person
and
he
had
a
one-year-old
as
well,
so
the
whole
family
went,
but
we
had
two
one-year-olds
and
surprisingly,
that
our
daughter
says
yeah.
She
can
kind
of
remember
some
things
she
could.
B
Yeah,
not
everything,
but
so
we've
been
down
there
at
least
once
from
that
period.
On
at
least
I
believe
once
a
year
sometimes
twice
a
year,
then
we
had
a
granddaughter
and
she
was
down
there
every
year
and
you
can
imagine,
I
think
she
was
around
13
and
she
just
she
just
said
grandpa.
Can
we
go
someplace
else
for
a
change,
she's,
just
good
disney.
A
B
I
I
seen
the
thing
built
not
physically,
but
on
television
and
for
the
economy
or
what
our
family
was
my
brother
and
I
both
didn't
think
we'd
ever
get
down
there.
So
I
think
that's
what
really
drove
us
to
that
as
we
got
out
in
the
world
made
a
living
and
we
could
go,
we
just
couldn't
get
enough
of
it,
and
you
know
it's
not
the
same,
but
people
who
go
down
there
now
wouldn't
know
the
difference,
but
because
what.
A
B
Is
is
what
it
is,
but
we
remember
it
was.
It
was
better
20
years
ago,
but
I
could
never
begin
to
explain
how
what
the
difference
is,
and
I
don't
want
to
try
to
take
away
from
anybody
that.
Well,
it's
not
as
good,
because
you
go
down
there
and
you
you.
Never
you
wouldn't
know
the
difference
and
everybody
would
still
enjoy
themselves
yeah,
it's
just
it's
just
a
neat
place
to
be
and
they're
right.
B
B
B
B
A
B
We
sell
books
for
the
main
point
main
part
of
it
and
everything
that
we
take
in
as
far
as
dollars.
Every
cent
goes
back
to
the
library
that's
through
membership
and
in
selling
books.
We
used
to
do
other
things,
other
than
quote
unquote,
sell
books,
but
with
covid
and
with
a
lot
of
we
just
we're
going
to
stay
with
books
and
it
seems
to
be
working
out
quite
well.
We
have
a
used
bookstore
in
the
library
first
floor.
B
They
can
come
in
at
the
same
hours.
The
library
is
open.
We
used
to
staff
it,
we
don't
anymore,
they
can
buy
the
books
they're
all
the
same
price,
basically
except
for
one
area
and
is
well
marked.
Then
they
pay
the
library
staff
so
that
helped
tremendously
that
no
set
hours,
libraries
open
they
can
shop,
and
then
we
also
opened
up
the
basement
and
I'm
going
to
guess.
B
A
That's
right
so
you're
thinking
about
summer
programs
whenever
we
have
special
guests
in
all
the
different
speakers
that
the
library
brings
in
some
of
those
special
events
we're
doing
the
first
friday
flicks.
Those
are
the
movie
matinees
that
are
coming
back
and
you
know
the
friends
buy.
The
popcorn.
B
A
B
I
started
to
get
involved
in
the
library
when
I
was
working
and
even
as
a
kid
I
used
the
library
a
lot
and
I
told
myself
I
don't
know
what
it
was
10
15
years
before
I
decided
to
retire
that
when
I
do,
I
will
give
back
and
I
think
maybe
that's
when
I
decided
because
jane
I
can't
recall
her
last
name.
She
called
me.
A
B
Yes,
jay
martin.
She
called
me
once
and
asked
me
if
I
wanted
to
be
a
trustee
and
I
told
her
the
truth
I
just
since
I'm
working.
I
just
don't
feel
that
I
have
the
time
to
give,
and
I
know
it
wasn't
much
time
for
a
trustee,
but
I
just
didn't
want
to,
but
at
that
time
I
decided
when
I
retire.
I
will
give
back
so
here
I
am.
A
B
B
There
isn't
nearly
as
many
people
down
there
on
thursday
as
there
will
be
saturdays
plus
you
get.
You
get
first
choice.
Basically,
that's
right,
then,
the
other
one
that
we
will
have
will
be
that
saturday,
the
12th
and
that
will
go
on
from
nine
o'clock
to
two
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
and
that's
open
to
everybody
and
it's.
Oh,
it's
five
dollars
a
bag.
We
give
you
a
high
b
bag
or
that
size
of
a
shopping
bag.
Whatever
you
can
put
in
that
bag,
you
cost
you.
B
B
B
B
B
B
All
the
non-fiction
are
categorized
in
what
pertains
to
the
subject
and
it
is
posted
on
each
bin.
So
it's
pretty
easy
to
find
and
if
you
can't,
if
you
want
to
ask,
we
always
have
people
down
there
and
the
people
that
are
down
there
are
the
people
that
shelve
the
books
so
they're
pretty
knowledgeable.
If
you
ask
for
a
particular
subject
or
a
title,
chances
are
they'll
know
and
they
can
at
least
show
you
where
it
would
be.
If
we
had
it.
B
B
We
still
have
a
few
vinyl
records.
What
I've
done
with
a
lot
of
vinyl
records,
there's
a
store
in
town
that
will
buy
them.
They
don't
give
you
much,
but
nonetheless
I
just
wanted
to
get
them
out
of
the
basement,
so
I've
been
taking
them
over
there
and
they'll,
give
us
eight
dollars
or
four
dollars,
and
so
I'll
take
them.
There.
B
I
have
a
tendency
to
read
two
or
three
books
at
the
same
time
and
my
wife
drives
her
nuts.
She
says:
how
do
you
do
that
and
usually
it's
one
fiction
and
one
non-fiction
at
the
same
time,
but
I
just
didn't
talk
about
authors,
because
there's
just
so
many
authors
that
I
would
highly
recommend
to
anybody
and.
B
If
you're
into
mysteries
and
that
type
of
stuff-
and
I
know
most,
some
people
are
some
people
aren't,
but
the
number
one
author
that
I
personally
like
is
robert
b
parker.
Unfortunately,
he
has
passed
and
if
you're
looking
for
his,
I
would
just
strongly
suggest
to
be
sure
that
look
for
a
book
that
he
wrote
as
opposed
one
of
his
they're,
not
ghost
writers,
but
another
writer
that
has
her
name
on
it.
B
B
It's
alter
ed
eden,
it's
it's
about
a
lab
had
test
animals
and
over
in
baghdad.
So
he
starts
out.
You
know
it
isn't
good
and
during
the
war
it
was
looted
and
animals
got
out
and
they
made
their
way
to
the
states
and
that's
basically
what
the
book
is.
The
animals
are
a
mutation
that
they
highly
intelligent
and
not
very
nice
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
So
what.
A
B
Yes,
I
do
all
the
monkeys,
yeah,
absolutely
stranger
than
fiction,
but
patterson
had
one
out
about
animals
too.
That
was
going
wild.
It
was
the
zoo
and
then
they
had
a
problem
with
that.
But
but,
like
I
said,
there's
several
authors
that
I
try
to
read
everything
with
and
the
non-fiction
I
I
I
like
history
and
right
now.
It's
somewhat
history.
I
just
just
caught
my
eyes,
so
I
started
reading
it's
the
eight
great
debates
about
the
bible
prophecies
and
they
three
or
four
opinions,
and
I
just
find
that
interesting.
A
B
A
Yeah
I've
actually
started
well.
I
finished
a
book
called
the
final
girl
support
group,
it's
by
gritty
hendrix,
which
I
think
there's
another
book
that
is
out
like
the
southern
book
club's
guide
to
slaying,
vampires,
which
I,
if
I
got
the
title
right,
I
haven't
read
that,
but
it
was
like
a
book
club
pick
here
at
the
library,
and
I
heard
it
was
quite
gory.
A
Yes,
so
I
guess
in
this
story
there's
always
a
final
girl
who
survives
like
she
went
to
the
camp
and
all
her
friends
get
murdered,
but
she
survives
well.
This
story
is
based
on
the
final
girl
of
all,
like
the
80s,
all
these
different
films
that
were
made
off
of
them
and
in
the
book
they're
kind
of
pretending,
like
these
really
happened.
A
All
these
massacres
happened
and
all
these
final
girls
get
together
and
they
have
a
final
girls
support
group
where
they
just
they
meet
like
monthly,
and
you
know,
they're
all
characters
or
whatever,
but
they're
wondering.
Why
are
we
still
meeting
and
eventually,
of
course
something
has
to
happen,
so
one
of
the
final
girls
gets
killed
by
one
of
their
monsters
or
so
they
think
and
they're
trying
to
figure
out
who
did
it?
You
know
before
they
get
all
of
them
become
another
final
girl.
A
B
B
Why
can't
we
just
get
in
the
car
and
leave
and
of
course
somebody
else
says
no,
we
got
to
go
in
the
barn
and
hide
and
there's
all
these
knives
swinging
back
and
forth
and
machetes,
and
I
mean
it
was
a
commercial
about
something,
but
I
I
I
don't
know
what
it
was,
but
I
those
type
of
things
remind
me
of
that
commercial,
because,
obviously
it's
a
funny
commercial
sheet.
Why
can't
we
just
leave?
