Library Humor


At our last Friends of the Library board meeting, we were discussing the recent break in and our need to install a better security system.  The window that had been broken had been replaced, and we were taking stock to make certain that nothing had been taken.
One Member:  Were any computers stolen?
Library Director:  No, we've accounted for every computer.
Another Member:  What about movies or music?
Library Director:  It doesn't appear any of those are missing either.
Sweet Little Old Lady Member:  Has anyone checked our complete works of Shakespeare?

To which all of us laughed long and hard!

LOL!

How about all of your Beatles biographies? Those seem to have walked off in our library! Oh, and the Stephen King titles, make sure you check those. :)

So far, nothing is missing. We're thinking that the potential thief heard a signal trip (we have a system that alerts clerks to patrons wandering off to restricted areas) and that frightened him into leaving before he had time to take anything. What he didn't know is that we have a silent alarm that automatically called the police, so he was fortunate to hear the audible signal to the clerks, or he would be sitting in jail.

Seriously, what thief in his right mind would break into the library?
