Librarians are the keepers of knowledge. They hold the keys to a treasure trove of tomes containing the wisdom of the ages. They also deal with the public every day, so you know they see their fair share of crazies.
People have asked librarians all sorts of questions over the years, including these ones received by NY librarians from the 1940s-1980s prove without a doubt.
#1. The “public eye,” as it was then…
#2. Fair question, though perhaps an ill-advised plan.
#3. That’s one busy day.
#4. I’m guessing somewhere in Wilmington.
#5. Intrigue…
#6. Didn’t Adam eat the apple? Is this a trick question?
#7. Girl, go.
#8. Um…I’d really like to know how this was answered.
#9. This is a romance novel waiting to happen.
#10. Ew.
You know those librarians answered each and every one of those questions. Because they’re awesome, and also hilarious.
Seriously. Go hug your librarian friend today…and then buy them a beer and listen to their stories. Everyone wins.
