How many books were damaged?

While the water heater failure did cause some flooding in the children’s room, fortunately, the issue was caught early and the water didn’t rise too high. Since most of the library’s collections are stored off the floor, most of our materials were unharmed. The hardest-hit area was the "holiday closet," where a number of Valentine's Day books were on the floor. However, the biggest issue was the damage to the walls and carpet in the affected areas.
