This compilation highlights how librarians use wit to spice up the library experience.
Don’t Go Extinct, Read
A thesaurus is not a book in this instance, but a dinosaur tempting you into the world of words. That’s exactly what a witty librarian claimed anyway, placing a sign that morphed the usual image of a reference book into something out of the Jurassic era, all to spark an interest in reading.
Positioned at the entrance of a college library, this sign did more than just catch the eye; it intrigued minds. It cleverly encourages people, who might not even know what a thesaurus is, to dive into its pages or at least search for its meaning, proving that creativity can turn a simple sign into a potent motivator for exploration.
