Working from home means that our library staff suddenly have some new co-workers!
1. This little house panther is Wendy! Wendy enjoys having Heather at home with her and is making sure that Heather remains at her computer by constantly sitting in her lap.
2. Meet Harry T.! He is Randye’s lovely new betta fish and has been keeping her entertained while he adjusts to his new home. One of his favorite activities is pushing balls of moss around his tank.

3. Evie is Sharon’s rescue cat who has won over Sharon’s “dog-person-only” other half. Evie is enjoying the opportunity to keep Sharon company while she’s working from home. Evie and Charlie play together every day and became best buddies the very day they met.

4. Charlie is Sharon’s 120-pound Malamute who loves everyone and everything including the UPS, FedEx, and mail carriers. Charlie has been known to break out his yard every once in a while, but he’s friends with the police. Charlie and his cat best friend Evie are confused about why she’s home but they’re happy that she is and want to be near their people all the time.

5. This orange tabby is Oliver! He’s been helping Allison while she works from home by walking over her keyboard, drinking from her water glass, and even making an unplanned appearance in a virtual Staff Council meeting.
6. Fox is keeping Rebecca company at home and insists on having two hands on her at all times. In lieu of that, she will accept walks outside as long as they involve chasing squirrels.
7. This spotty pup is Piper! Piper is Micki’s high-anxiety rescue dog who requires that she be in close proximity at almost all times. Her bed has been moved so that she can be nearby while Micki works from home.
8. Mark’s sweet cat Georgie was originally part of a TNR program, but he and his family adopted her. One of Mark’s daughters named her Georgie after the little boy in the opening scene of the movie “It,” because she kept jumping into the storm sewer to allude capture. Georgie is a very playful cat, but also super-cuddly once she’s worn herself out. She’s also been helping Mark work from home by sending text messages – can anyone translate “0…ism,,,,..dxsa”?

It seems strange to be thinking about anything past the end of the semester right now, but the Grinnell College Libraries is looking for student workers for this summer and fall! Apply through Handshake and email circ@grinnell.edu if you have any questions.

#tbt This undated men's track photo shows four unnamed students. We'll have to search through some older yearbooks to see if this photo appears in any of them so we can find out the identity of these students!
