Baby, It's Cold Outside

Gouger is proud to present another ingenious money-saving device. Replace the library's old clunky oil-burning furnace with our innovative new Donations Furnace. This easy-to-install furnace can replace any current heating/cooling system. Once it's in place, simply attach the patented self-feeding Donations Shute and your library will soon be toasty warm. The Donations Furnace is designed to run especially well on Reader's Digest Condensed Books, 30-year-old encyclopedias, National Geographics, ratty paperbacks, underlined textbooks, and mildewy novels. One liquor box of books can heat a large library for a week.

Plus, as an added bonus, Gouger will include at no extra charge the Air Conditioning Adaptor. Use those same books to keep cool all summer!

Why fill up the library's dumpster when you could be stoking your way to savings?

Honor The Silent Heroes

Every library is blessed with some truly great patrons. These wonderful people use the library as it should be used. They return their books on time and intact. If they don't they appologize and pay their fines without whining. They are polite and quiet. They go to your booksales and call the mayor in support of the library's pending budget. It's the nice man who brings chocolates for the staff at the holidays. The quiet teenager who reads for fun. The lady who always smiles and thanks you for waiting on her. The cute toddler you watch grow up reading.

Too often librarians concentrate on the patrons who drive the staff bonkers. Now is the time to honor those treasured library patrons who make it all worthwhile. Invest in Gouger's Great Patron Memorial Statue. This exquisite life-size statue is made of our patented "Marblette". It stays shiny bright and resists all graffitti. At no extra charge each piece includes an engraved plaque where you can name names. Put one in your lobby or on the front lawn today.

Let's Just Admit It, Genealogy Sucks

Let's face it, genealogy is an annoying pain in the ass for most librarians.

Now there's no need to disappoint them. Introducing Gouger's state-of-the-art Family Tree Fabricator! This cutting-edge software invents an impressive looking family tree instantly. Simply input the information the patron already knows and press the button. A few seconds later a wonderfully illustrated and detailed family tree pops up! The program randomly assigns your patron colorful ancestors like pirates, cowboys, war heroes, lion tamers, naughty vaudeville dancers, and the all-important Mayflower descendent. They'll never know the difference and everybody's happy. Make yourself happy and order today.

Tax Your Psychic Powers!

Librarians have long been thought to have the power to see beyond. Our mysterious ability to find answers seems almost supernatural to mere mortals.

So put those alleged otherworldly powers of yours to practical use with Gouger's Tax Form Ouija Board.

Patrons frequently expect librarians somehow have the paranormal ability to automatically "know" which tax forms they need. Why not make it a fun time for both of you? This miraculous board is guaranteed to be at least as accurate and helpful as the IRS, perhaps even a little more so. Works on both state and federal forms.

Tested on real books, Gouger's sensational Prolific Author Contraceptives will keep those overly-fertile authors from overtaking the entire library. Simply attach the pill right on the book's recto and leave it in the bookpress overnight.
