A Notice to All Patrons

On behalf of librarians everywhere, I ask you, the patron, to please not use toilet paper or tissues as bookmarks. These items easily tear when we try to pull them out of books. It takes much longer to pull a piece of tissue than it does an index card or, who would have though, real bookmark. If you insist on using a tissue type material, please remove it yourself before you return the item to the library.

Also, we'd rather not think about what you were doing with the book when you decided that Quilted Northern made for a superb page marking material.

Thank you.
