Michael Gannon, COO for Support Services at Prince George's County Memorial Library System, is having fun. In the low-budget but charming "Hard Hat Librarian" video series touting library construction and renovation, Gannon not only offers informative updates--he also provides architectural history lessons, unfiltered opinions of 1970s interior decoration choices, and a plethora of puns. Recommended viewing for lovers of wholesome fun, local government, and Maryland accents.

Highlights:
Episode 7, featuring Sneaks the Cat
Episode 11, in which the old carpeting is pronounced "gross"
Episode 3, featuring a last-second cameo by the mythical Goatman of Prince George's County
Episode 10, in which the shortfalls of 1970s energy-efficient construction (and ugly vertical blinds) are discussed

Or, if you prefer to watch sequentially: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.

There is no episode 4 (there is no Miss Zarves).

Dat's a Murlynn accent, awright! Thanks, S&C, these were sweet and even made me a little homesick. I'll be sharing these with family from the area.

These are fantastic!
Though episode 5 doesn't particularly show it, the Laurel library is gorgeous.
