DEDUCTIVE REASONING
IN ACTION @ THE LIBRARY
-
FINANCE COMMITTEES:
Libraries cost money to run.
We already have a library.
Therefore, the library already has enough money.
-
ADMINISTRATORS:
Librarians need to have regular breaks.
They go home every night (eventually).
Therefore, we can cut the length of meal times.
-
PATRONS:
Books are for borrowing.
I am a borrower.
Therefore, I can do whatever I like in the library.
-
PARENTS OF YOUNG PATRONS:
I am a taxpayer.
Children's Librarians are paid from my taxes.
Therefore, I can leave my children in the library for a few hours whilst I shop.
-
BOOKSELLERS:
Libraries need books.
I sell books.
Therefore, librarians will drop everything to see me when I arrive without an appointment.
- LIBRARIANS:
I come to work every day.
I am undervalued, underpaid, and overworked.
Therefore, I must be crazy.
