We have several study rooms available in our library for groups to study, or just individuals who need the serenity of their own room with the ability to shut a door. In a number of those rooms, we provide dry erase boards. That means, of course, that we have dry erase markers and erasers available at the circulation desk to use on those boards.

Today, a patron gave me his ID as collateral for a marker. He didn't like the fact that we only had the color red available, but accepted it anyway. He asked, "Is it dry?" Before I could answer, he took the cap off of the marker and drew on the mousepad for the computer on the circulation counter. What are you doing, dude?
