It begins June 8th.
Okay everyone, I've brought snacks and I've spared no expense
because I know we've all been working really hard
on getting ready for the Summer Reading Challenge, Unearth a Story.
Now I appreciate you all bringing all of your areas of expertise here together.
And I know we still have some problem spots to work out, but I think we're ready.
Are you sure this is a good idea?
I don't think we're ready for the Summer Reading Challenge.
Yeah.
Seems like there could be chaos.
But reading always finds a way.
That's right.
Now I brought in some special guests to help us test out the new system
and to make sure we're ready for the Summer Reading Challenge
to begin in about one hour.
Now remember, Summer Reading isn't just about books.
It's about bringing them to life.
Ah, here are our guests.
Now, is everyone ready to begin?
Welcome to Jurassic Library.
How can we help you?
And looky, your books are about dinosaurs.
Sure, let me show you where those will be.
Are the computers up and running?
The online catalog isn't quite working yet, but everything else should be okay.
That's okay.
I think I remember the call number.
We've just had some updates to our non-fiction to get ready for the Summer Reading Challenge,
but I'm sure it'll be fine.
Hop in and remember to keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times.
Is there a certain dinosaur you're looking for?
Trust me, I'll please this my favorite.
Mine too.
Are we ready?
Hold on to your butts.
Um, books. I mean, hold on to your butts.
First we approach the general prehistoric period.
And next we have the brachiosaurus books.
Oh no, some of the books must have fallen off the shelf.
Is she okay?
What happened?
I'm not sure. I'm gonna see if I can help.
Why don't you two take these books back to the children's desk?
I'll stick with the kids.
Something's coming! Run! It's a T-Rex!
We may have to reboot. There's no other choice.
Well, if we shut down, the doors could unlock and the kids will get in,
and they're still 30 minutes before the summer reading challenge starts.
And the raptors, will they stay in their call number area?
We should be okay, unless they know how to open doors.
Okay, ready?
Initializing shutdown.
And we're rebooting!
Oh no, the security system is still down. Kids are entering the building.
Clever kids. See? Chaos!
Boy, do I hate being right all the time.
I guess it's go time.
Everyone to your stations. Summer reading challenge starting early this year.

Do you have a book about Velociraptors versus T-Rex?
We do! Are you sure you want it? Maybe a nice, racky source book instead?
No, we need T-Rex versus Velociraptor, please.
Yeah, it's for school.
Okay, hop in, but keep very still.
