Like, of course a Dzur would write a book called "Should You Do Me the Insult of Refusing to Purchase My Book, Redeem Your Honor with the Weapon of Your Choice at Dawn on the Morrow by the Lightning-Struck Tree at Deep River Park"

We were able to access the library for the first time in a while. Our catalog is working again. No other news yet.

Updates -- no the library has not reopened yet. No we're not sure when it will. No fines during the pandemic. Please don't mail us anything, we're not in a good position to receive anything. Stay well.

Congratulations to RF Kuang for getting the not-a-Hugo Astounding Award for best new writer. The Poppy War was an intense novel.
