So Close!

Lots of last-minute details are being hammered out (literally) at the school. My boss and I met this afternoon to discuss the arrangement of the shelves and computer tables in the library. She made a little mock-up of the library with moveable shelves. Pretty funny. I think we have it worked out. We went to the school today to check on the progress since our last visit, but the foreman said we weren't allowed in because of an impending visit from the fire marshall. We thought this was a good sign that the fire marshall was inspecting the building. Since were away at our librarians' conference since last Wednesday, we feel really out of the loop with what's happening at the site. Hopefully, we'll be able to get in tomorrow and see if everything is really ready. The book rep called to say that we may have to delay the arrival of the collection until Thursday because of the weather forecast. They're calling for rain on Wednesday, and leaving the books out on the sidewalk during thunderstorms just wouldn't be a good idea. She's going to keep a close eye on the weather and let me know tomorrow. A lot depends on whether or not the moving company can delay shipment and delivery until Thursday. I'll keep us all informed.
