Scenes from a Library

Bibliothecary will now present a few library vignettes from a compatriot of mine who works in an academic library.   This may become an occasional blog feature.

Scenes From A Library 

* "Do you have any ipads I can check out?  'Cause my computer just got drenched in f*ckin' Cherry Coke." 

* Patron:  Do y'all have any color scanners?

   Library employee: Yes, what do you need to scan?

   Patron:  Well, I got arrested in New York last weekend and ... 

   Library employee:  3rd floor.

* If you have a question for people working on a service desk, it's a good idea to take the straw out of your mouth when asking said question. 

* A guy who looks to be 50-ish,  approaches the desk:
Him: "Hey, I've got this song in my head, let me sing it:   OOOOOO-Double Vision!  Who sings that     song?"
Library employee:  "Foreigner."
