Sydney’s Mitchell Library is celebrating it’s 100th Anniversary with a “sexy” new alphabet that utilizes objects from the library’s collection.
While I agree that it’s time to bring some sexiness back to the library system, I don’t know that a new typeface would be my first thought. So I brought in some help from the ultimate authority in sexiness to construct a new library anthem.
Justin, take it away….

The Ultimate Authority in Library Sexiness
::lights dim, bass pumps.::
They’re bringing sexy back, (yeah!)
Other librar’ans don’t know how to act (yeah!)
Books won’t open their covers by themselves, (yeah!)
I ask you questions, you show me your shelves.
(Take me to the Dewey!)
Libraaarian (uh-huh)
You see ink smudges,
Yeah, I’m overdue (uh-huh)
I’ll let you fine me, these aren’t back with you (uh-huh)
It’s just that Dickens is a bit verbose.
(Take me to the Dewey!)
Come here book
Go ahead, be gone with it
Twilight’s on hold,
Go ahead be gone with it
WTF
Go ahead be gone with it
Need more vamps!
Go ahead be gone with it
Okay what about some werewolves?
Go ahead be gone with it
I’ll fight those teens,
Go ahead be gone with it
Jacob is mine!
Go ahead be gone with it
:::Awkward way-too-old-for-Edward-and/or-Jacob screaming:::
Get your sexy on
Get your sexy on
Thanks, Justin. I think you’ve done a good thing here.
PS – Don’t forget, there’s no sex in the archive room.

You’ve just made me laugh so hard, I wrecked a keyboard with Most Undignified Coffeesnort.
Thanks piles. I’ve sent this to every other librarian I know!
