Q: Can you share a notable library memory?Ī: For Halloween my first year here I dressed up as Harry Potter. And even on the days I'm tired and don't look forward to it, by the end of the day I'm glad I came! There are so many nice and interesting people I get to talk to. It's nice to have a job that you look forward to going to every day. Q: What is your favorite part of working at the library?Ī: Definitely the people. I guess Alchemist & Barrister's or Chuck's. Q: If you could have lunch/dinner at any Princeton eatery, which would you choose?Ī: There are so many good places. ( Author's note: Seth received his MFA degree in Screenwriting from York University in Toronto in 2011.) Q: Tell us a surprising fact about yourself.Ī: I love to write fiction, so it's nice being around all the books. Q: What are you most likely to be doing on your days off?Ī: Playing soccer, reading, writing, watching TV, or sleeping. I decided to start reading books by people who are still alive, so we'll see how that goes. " This is How You Lose Her," by Junot Diaz. Q: What was the last library item you checked out? Was it any good? I wrote him a letter and received a template letter back and a cap that read "The Matt Christopher Fan Club." I probably still have it somewhere. I was always bouncing off the walls and didn't start reading much until I discovered Matt Christopher's books about sports. I started using my town library at age seven. How long have you worked at PPL?Ī: Absolutely. Q: Thanks for taking the time to give us some insider info, Seth. If you visit the first floor checkout desk or use the self-checkout stations you've probably seen him around!

Seth works full time in the Lending Services department on the first floor where he oversees check-in of materials, processes missing and damaged items and assists customers, among other tasks. In continuation of our popular "Get to Know Us" blog posts, I caught up with Princeton Public Library staffer Seth Berens for an interview, looking to get the scoop on his time spent both in and out of the library.
