A large area in the middle of the library has been cleared out by Mr Kitridge for the afternoon's book club meeting. Two big sacks of beans bags in every colour of the rainbow wait’s to be picked up and used by the students. There are also some chairs and tables scattered around the open space if some attending professors or the special guest would prefer sitting on a chair rather than a bean bag. For this special book club meeting Mr Kitridge has lifted his rule against food and beverages in the library. On one of the larger tables there is a big tea set, cups, plates, cookies and of course bowls of ice cream and necessary plastic silverware. Mr Kitridge can be spotted sitting on a lime green bean bag reading a magazine.
