Welcome to the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library's Geek the Library Blog!  

Have you heard the geek buzz?  Did you see our dancing librarians and other staff in the Fall Festival parade in September?  Did you visit our "Geek the Library" booth at the Fall Festival in Lions Park?  Have you received a Geek sticker, tattoo or ink pen?  If not, come visit us at the Library!  Join us as we Geek the Library!  

We're turning the noun "geek" into a verb:

geekVERB
1. To love, to enjoy, to celebrate, to have an intense passion for.
2. To express interest in.
3. To possess a large amount of knowledge in.
4. To promote.

No matter who you are, there are things you are passionate about—things you geek. Maybe you geek cooking or flamenco dancing. Maybe you are passionate about gardening, helicopters or genealogy. Or maybe you just geek the weather.

Whatever you geek, serious or fun, your Public Library supports you.

The Geek the Library project is a community-based public awareness campaign aimed at spreading the word about the vital and growing role of your Public Library, and to raise awareness about the critical funding issues many U.S. public libraries face.

Over the next 8 months, through activities and programs at the Library and through this blog, follow our Library's Geek the Library campaign as we work to inspire conversations about our Public Library and our need for the support of those we serve in our community. We hope you tell us what you geek, how our Public Library supports you and our community, and that everyone in our community benefits from the services our Library provides.

Get your geek on!
