Four literary themed trucks are part of a new ad campaign for the Johnson County Library. Officials hope the trucks will spark interest and bring even more readers to their doors.

Ha, bullshit. More like, Officials hoped a blogger walked by and took a picture of them with their iphone and shit got reblogged 100x on Tumblr.

WHO AM I TO STAND IN THE WAY OF A PUBLIC LIBRARY WASTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON AIRBRUSHING THAT COULD OTHERWISE BE USED TO BUY, OH, I DON’T KNOW, BOOKS.

“Barkley Advertising Agency, a locally based business, offered its service — valued at $33,000 — free of charge. Company vice-president Tom Demetriou offered the pro bono work because he wanted to remind people of the sanctuary found at libraries, where the community is intrinsically bound by stories.”

that’s MY Snotty, uppity, middle of nowhere , Johnson county!! wooop woop! (no seriously, I love this, and I’m better than you bc I’m from Johnson County..also if you don’t live in KS, you don’t get this stereotype and probably don’t care)

I love it too! YAY for people doing awesome things for their libraries!
