As budgets shrink and libraries are asked to do more with less, it's easy for library staff and users to forget the joy that a library can bring. Let's help bring a bit of lightness and levity back into our institutions. From appropriate April Fools' Day website 'hacks' to videos like the "New Spice" sensation, the sky's the limit when it comes to comedy in the library. Get inspired to bring back the funny to your organization.
