When You Can't Tie a Tie...

One afternoon this week, a young man came into the library looking like he was in a hurry to get to an important appointment. He was wearing a white dress shirt with an untied tie and slacks. He carried a suit jacket on a hanger that appeared to have a dry cleaner tag still on it. He rushed up to the customer service desk and quickly asked, "Do you know how to tie a tie?" Monroe Library staff quickly polled each other on whether or not anyone knew how to tie a tie. Teen Librarian, Chuck Pratt, came to the rescue with his tie tying skills, and the young man soon had a perfectly tied tie. With the tie tying emergency taken care of, the young man found that he even had time to spare and took a moment to sign up for a Sno-Isle library card.

So, if you should happen to need help tying your tie or you need to sign up for a library card, come on over!
