National Library Week: Go Fish

Two card players, fiercely battling over a hand of... Go Fish. The stakes are high in this game because these aren't ordinary cards. "Do you have a MasterCard?" "Mass transit card?" "Myrtle Beach Nudist Club card?" Of course both players are forgetting an all-important fact: 63% of adults in the U.S. have public library cards. Celebrate National Library Week April 13-19. Starring Shad Kunkle and shot at Morton College Library in Cicero, Illinois. Click here to watch the rest of the National Library Week videos!

National Library Week/Go Fish

This is a great video & its very fitting. When people check out books, they go thru all these cards, looking for there library card.
After 30 years working in the library, if it can happen on the street, it can happen in the library & it probably already has. The very poor, indigent, to the very rich use the public library. Librarians need to be appreciated, they are under paid & overworked. Charlaine Marlow
