The End!!!
It’s been a long journey, but we finally got there.
It’s been fun, it’s been hard, but is all apart of the story.
We had a huge time from the flash mob to the Claudia Gray arrival.
Thanks to everyone, from the Technical Services to the Marketing, you all made the Celebration of Literature 2012 successful; you all helped in making 14,000 people go BEYOND THE BOOK!!

Come cry on my shoulder, I’ll wipe your tears away, And exchange it for a grin. I’m a crushed pile of car parts, Once assembled into a sleek silver machine, Now broken, useless, I never...
