A paperless society has been predicted for many years. Librarians, however, have embraced and flourished with new technologies. Which makes it all the more annoying when some dipstick remarks, "I'm surprised we still have libraries. Everything is on the computer nowadays." Jackass.
There's no sense arguing with this line of reasoning. People who say stuff like this have no idea what librarianship entails. If anything, the Internet has made libraries busier. But try explaining that to Mr. Smug who is pleasantly anticipating your civil service, know-it-all behind being in the Unemployment Office very soon.
Such faulty reasoning deserves Gouger Brand assistance. As a public service, Gouger is proud to be the sponsor of the Canard Cove Free Library's "Facts in the Stacks" blog. This is the website to use when you want to show patrons just how the reliable the Internet can be. That's because every fact on this pioneering website is totally and completely made up. Yes, utter lies and shameless fibs. Bunk and baloney.
Sure, everything is on the Internet. Especially nonsense. Link to Facts in the Stacks and help spread the false word. It's a crock of fun.
