What's new or different

This can be played in large libraries and small ones and at a potluck, meeting, or as part of the day's work.

There is always something new or different about our library or the people in it. On a regular and rotating basis have someone announce - "What's changed in the building today?" - or "What's changed in the building in the last year?" - something equally lame. This forces everyone to focus of the familiar and search for the unfamiliar (or taken for granted). Maybe it is that a burned out light has been replaced; or someone with a beard has shaved; or a tile has been replaced with a tile of a different color; or there's a member of the library team; etc., etc., and so forth. In any event, the answer(s) are submitted to the person who raised the challenge and he/she announces the winner. (The mechanics of this might have to be worked out to ensure equity, etc.)

As always, there is as much fun in the planning as there is in the actual event.

So, check my Facebook page - can you figure out what's different this week?
