The librarian has stood on this page since the shelves opened in December 1999. Random Facts is a collection of strange, amazing, and frankly useless things worth knowing anyway: animals, places, machines, laws, and the odd scrap that arrived with a source attached.
Pick a shelf from the categories, open a card, and follow the tags on it. The open shelves include animal facts, world facts, strange facts, and facts about dogs. If you would rather not choose, ask for a random fact and take whatever comes off the pile.
What belongs here
A fact with a point, a curiosity, or a number somebody checked. Famous quotes had a corner of the old site. This room is for facts. If you have one to add, write the desk.
