Celebrate April Fools' Day by telling playfully outlandish tales to your library patrons, like, "The library web site is a good alternative to Google!" or "I would love to hear about your family genealogy!" Hilarity will ensue.

1. "I like you."
2. "Your input is valued."
3. "There is no way the library can function without you as the [director, manager, etc.]. We would be lost without you."
"My co-worker over there would love to do your taxes for you, but you should probably wait a couple weeks before you bring your W-2s and stuff--he's busy with a paper jam right now"!
Thanks to me, our Facebook page says that we've closed due to severe weather.
