"The Albina Library"
            On Tuesdays my class went to the Albina library. We got a behind-the-scenes look at things. Things like the back room of the library. We also got to see the system of checking in and out books. Their system looks remarkably like ours.
            We got to see the inside of the book drop area. It has a bin with a cotton mesh covering. People dropped books while we were inside the area. Some people got to carry books to the back, sadly I was not one of them.

            When we got to the back, the host librarian showed us how the system worked. They receive shipments from other libraries. Albina also ships books to its fellow libraries. It takes and receives many books. I learned that Albina is the smallest library in their branch.
